What is a low-cost airline? It is an airline that tries its best to save costs and make air tickets cheaper. Cost-saving methods include reducing or even canceling some routine free services on board, such as not providing meals or charging for meals, such as charging for baggage.
Low-cost airlines first appeared in the United States, and the Internet era began to break out in Europe. In Asia, with the rapid development of airlines such as AirAsia and Cebu Pacific, these low-cost airlines have more routes and wider influence than Malaysia Airlines.

Generally, in February (sometimes in March), May, August and 165438+ 10, tickets for the next six months to one year are sold. On the eve of promotion, the airline will use 0 yuan ticket or 1 yuan ticket as the promotion selling point. Although the number of 0 yuan tickets has decreased in recent years, the promotion of AirAsia is still worth looking forward to. In addition, when the new route is launched, there will also be some small promotional activities.

3. Jetstar Aviation Jetstar

Since we are interested in entering the China market, low prices are definitely a selling point, and we travelers will certainly benefit. 15 Singles' Day, Jetstar 88 yuan made a big promotion, and it was not a dream for 88 yuan to fly to Singapore to eat Hainan chicken rice.

I recently bought a plane ticket at Jetstar. The website runs very slowly, and the order is successful. After entering a credit card, it is often impossible to deduct money automatically. Fortunately, Jetstar's customer service attitude in China was good, and it gave me all kinds of suggestions, but it just couldn't help solve the problem technically. It turns out that Jetstar's website server is not in China, and the customer service sister has no choice but to say that she can't contact her foreign colleagues to help solve it. Since we want to attack the China market, it is very important to upgrade our hardware ~

However, it should be noted that Ryanair's low-cost airlines are generally only in small and medium-sized airports, and luggage weighing is strict. If it exceeds the fine, it's quite a lot.

Cheap airline booking strategy 1. Book tickets as early as possible. Booking tickets more than 3 months in advance may be low, which is suitable for children's shoes with established travel plans.
2. Use a joint credit card or debit card to shop. Low-cost airlines usually charge a reservation fee, but holding a joint credit card or debit card can be exempted. You can also enjoy the handling fee discount by using Visa and Master standard debit cards.
3. Ordering luggage online at the last second. Low-cost airlines charge more for checked baggage, so it is difficult to change and cancel it after purchase. Most airlines support ordering luggage online four hours before departure, and the price is the same as when booking.
Travel insurance is bought in advance, and it is worth buying if it is changed. It is recommended that you buy full travel accident insurance in the insurance company before you travel; Low-cost airlines can't change or cancel flights, and it's still worth buying if there is insurance for returning and changing flights.
The destination of low-cost airlines is an authoritative travel guide. In addition to those familiar tourist cities, low-cost airlines will also open some small places. When you don't know where to go, you might as well go to the website of low-cost airlines and choose an "unknown" destination for search. There are often unexpected surprises.
