What are Last Minute Flights?

Last minute flights are flights that are purchased close to the departure date and time of the flight - they're normally booked a few days or weeks before the date of departure, but in some cases can also be bought on the very same day as the flight. Last minute flights are mostly booked by those looking to travel due to emergency circumstances or holiday-goers who want to book spontaneous trips while being as flexible as possible. These types of flights are often cheap due to airlines needing to fill empty seats as quickly as possible, however, this does not guarantee that all last minute flights are cheap.
