Preparing for an overseas trip begins with purchasing an airline ticket!
Personally, I think there are various conditions for choosing a hotel, such as the area you are traveling in or the atmosphere, and it largely reflects your personal preferences, but I think that the right time and low price are the most important factors for choosing a flight.
So, let’s find out how to buy cheap airline tickets.

Let’s find cheap flights and go!
The first method is to use a commonly used brokerage platform. Among various platforms, I only search and compare through Naver Flight Ticket and Skyscanner.
1. Naver flight ticket search | 👉https://flight.naver.com/

m-flight.naver.com
It is a portal site that many Koreans use, and although the price range is almost similar to Skyscanner, it is often cheaper with card benefits, so I always search for it at least once. Among the benefits, if you have a credit card, you can purchase it at a cheaper price, so check it carefully!

2. Skyscanner search | 👉https://www.skyscanner.co.kr/

Personally, among brokerage platforms, Skyscanner is convenient and is a site I like because it searches for cheap flights well. And when you can’t clearly select a travel destination, it’s nice to be able to easily search for a reasonable price for the current section by using a function like Search Anywhere below. (You can use the same function by selecting Naver Airline Ticket Anywhere.)

When you’re wondering where to go, search anywhere!
And when planning your travel itinerary, it’s nice to be able to easily see at a glance which season prices are rising the most. The same function may be provided by several brokerage platforms, but I personally feel that Skyscanner is the most convenient, so I continue to use it.

3. Check group purchase airline tickets (Modu Tour, Hana Tour, etc.)
Group purchase tickets, also known as group tickets, are when travel agencies sell seats that have been purchased and reserved in advance for products such as packages. Therefore, you can go to a travel agency to check. Please note that this is an airline ticket with a set arrival and departure schedule.
For example, if you go to the group purchase airline ticket page on the Mode Tour site, there are several countries you can travel to. I searched because I wanted to go to Phuket, and a Jin Air flight was confirmed for a nearby date. Then, shall we compare prices for the same flight on Jin Air’s official website, Skyscanner, and Naver tickets?

2) Jin Air official website
The flight ticket was in the low 500,000 won range, but when I checked on the official website, it was in the low 700,000 won range. When purchasing from a public website, it seems that the special price seats are usually more expensive when purchased at the middle option price.

3) Naver flight ticket (to Phuket)
Although it is a little cheaper than the official website, the price is still in the mid-600,000 won range.

4) Skyscanner flight ticket (to Phuket)
Skyscanner confirms that the price is around 600,000 won. Currently, group purchase tickets sold by Modetour are the cheapest way to purchase the same flight.

If you look for the cheapest airline tickets, including those from foreign airlines, you may get different results, but if you are looking for a cheaper way to travel via domestic airlines, purchasing a group ticket can be one option, so it would be good to refer to it.
4) Buying airline tickets through other websites, such as via website dotcom.
You can purchase airline tickets at a lower price by purchasing special airline tickets on sale as the deadline approaches.
5) Purchase of airline/platform promotional tickets
You can purchase special promotional tickets carried out by the airline itself. Alternatively, if you look at special airline ticket events held on platforms such as My Real Trip, Interpark, and Triple, they are sold at low prices. I had to set an alarm or the competition was so intense that I couldn’t even make a purchase. (In addition, it was not easy for K-office workers to keep up with their schedules at the time because it included a lot of weekday schedules…)
It would be a good idea to look for special prices through events held once in a while.
Everyone probably has their own travel style or tips. I have written some useful tips for purchasing cheap airline tickets today from the sun I know.
