Why Offer Notifications in Travel Apps Matter
When you plan to travel, whether for work or for leisure, choosing the flight and hotel remains one of the biggest factors affecting your budget. And with the many options available through holiday booking apps, the question becomes: do prices for business trips differ from those for leisure trips? And how do you get the best deals?
Find a hotel→In this article we explain the key differences between the two kinds of trip, and how the Tjwaal app helps you book at the best prices while taking advantage of offer notifications.
First: flight prices on business and leisure trips
Business trips
Business trips are usually more expensive for several reasons:
- Fixed dates: they often fall on particular days, such as the start of the week or before important conferences and meetings.
- Ticket flexibility: airlines offer options to change or cancel the booking, which pushes the price up.
- Additional services: including larger seats and premium services, compared with economy tickets.
Leisure trips
Leisure trips are more flexible in timing and options:
- Travelling outside peak times: after the holidays or mid-week, when prices are cheaper.
- Economy tickets: leisure travellers usually prefer lower-cost tickets if their dates are flexible.
Through the Tjwaal app you can compare prices across different airlines and turn on offer notifications for when prices drop.
