Many people have a dream to travel the world. Or maybe you’ve just never been out of the country and you’re long overdue for a vacation. Whether it’s a one-time deal or you want to spend your time traveling around the globe, one thing is for sure: airfare can get expensive. If you’re like more people, you have a budget when it comes to traveling. Airfare to a foreign country can eat up a large portion of that budget. Add in a hotel stay, food, and attractions, and the expenses rack up quickly.
Fortunately, there are some places that you can travel that offer low-cost airfare. These trends tend to change from year to year, so in this post, we’re going to focus on the places that airfare experts say are the cheapest to travel in 2019. Of course, it’s important to note that factors including the airline you select, where you’re flying from, and the season in which you fly will affect the cost of your trip.
Flights to New Zealand and Australia have dropped below average for the first time in years, with some flights costing as much as 30% less than they did over the last two years. While you may still pay around $1,000 for a round-trip ticket, this is a significant discount if it’s your dream to travel Down Under.
During the months of spring, Morocco is a destination that offers affordable airfare. Additional routes to this country have opened up cheaper airfare, allowing you to fly roundtrip for around $500 to $750.
Spring is also the time to visit Malaysia. You can fly round-trip to Kuala Lumpur for about $800 during the months of March, April, and May. Not only was this predicted for 2019, but this has been an ongoing trend for the last several years.
Expanding routes have opened up more affordable flight opportunities for travelers that want to visit Central America. Expect to pay around $200 to $300 for a round-trip flight to nations including Costa Rica and Guatemala.
If you want to visit Mexico, you can save big by going in the spring. On average, expect to pay around $350 for a round-trip ticket to visit Guadalajara.
