Pitch-perfect Planning with Skyscanner: Tips to Enjoy the World Cup Matches Without Breaking the Bank

Cricket holds a cherished spot in the hearts of Indians, uniting them across diverse cultural backgrounds. In fact, according to Skyscanner’s ‘Travel in Focus 2023 Report’, around 75% Indians expressed their willingness to increase their travel budget to experience live cricket matches. 

As India hosts the grand event and the thrilling countdown to the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 continues, excitement has reached its zenith! If you’re a die-hard fan planning to witness the excitement of live matches, we understand that sticking to a budget is essential. And guess what? We are here to help you in your quest for incredible flight deals and discover ways to support Team India passionately without breaking the bank. 

Catch the best deal: 

Finding great flight deals always feels good, but it’s not all down to good luck. Most airlines price their flights dynamically, so prices can change from day to day or even hour to hour. Airlines look at affordability, demand, availability, and lots of other factors when pricing their flights. But there is a pattern to it. Skyscanner’s data experts have found that flight tickets tend to follow a weekly cycle. Prices are usually lower earlier in the week.

Setting up price alerts on Skyscanner will ensure you’re the first to know as prices drop with any additional discounts or added supply. You can mark a flight you’re interested in, and you’ll be notified whenever the price goes up or down.

Score Big Savings

For even greater savings, consider being flexible with your travel dates. Select ‘Whole month‘ on the search calendar. We’ll show you the cheapest prices for that route and month found within the last four days. By extending your stay in a particular city, you’ll even have the opportunity to delve into the city’s  culture, heritage, and food.

Mix and match airlines, don’t play on the back foot:  

Unlock travel freedom and save big by mixing and matching airlines. Don’t limit yourself to one airline when you can explore a wide range of options and find the best deals for your journey. With Skyscanner’s user-friendly platform, you can easily compare flight options and choose airlines that can cut costs and save money for your journey. 

Find an airport near you

Nearest airport will capture any cheaper deals if you’re willing to drive a little bit further than your closest airport.
