44 Flight Booking Myths That Are Actually Wasting You Money
Myth 38: Red-Eye Flights Are Always the Cheapest (and Most Miserable) Option
The dreaded red-eye is often assumed to be the rock-bottom cheapest way to fly, at the cost of a good night's sleep. While they can be less expensive due to lower demand, this isn't a universal rule; prices vary based on route and season. Furthermore, for some travelers, red-eyes offer benefits like less airport chaos, potentially smoother flights due to cooler air, and arriving at your destination with a full day ahead. Don't dismiss them outright or assume they're solely a budget-misery choice without checking specific prices and your own travel style.
