What are Last-Minute Flights?
Last-minute flights are usually booked right before their departure date/time. Typically, these bookings are made only a few days or weeks before the scheduled takeoff date, with individuals who need urgent travel or business travellers being the usual customers. Although last-minute flights can present more cost-effective choices, as airlines try to fill unoccupied seats, it's essential to recognise that not every last-minute flight ensures lower prices.
The option to pay later for your last-minute flights with Tamara is available here at Alternative Airlines. Keep reading to find out more.
If you're booking last-minute flights at Alternative Airlines, please note that, although the majority of our e-tickets are sent within 2 hours after booking, it may take up to 24 hours in some circumstances for you to receive your e-ticket.
