44 Flight Booking Myths That Are Actually Wasting You Money

Myth 14: Booking Groups Together Always Saves Money

The assumption that booking group travel as a single reservation guarantees savings is not always valid. Airlines often have a limited number of seats available at the lowest fare class. When booking for a group, the system will charge all tickets at the highest available fare if there aren't enough seats in the lowest class to accommodate the entire group. A strategic approach is to book in smaller batches, securing the lowest fares for as many travelers as possible. This method requires coordination but can result in significant savings.
