Flexible dates & airportsGoogle Flights Explore shows the cheapest month to fly from your home airport; Skyscanner's "whole month" search does the same.🛫
Low-cost carriers to knowNorwegian, Ryanair, easyJet, SAS (sales). Budget airlines often don't appear on every search engine, so check them directly.💡
Local tipStockholm has US non-stops; Malmö is 20 minutes from Copenhagen airport by train, which is often cheaper.📉
How to pay lessBook 1–3 months out for short-haul, 2–6 for long-haul; fly Tuesday to Thursday; set alerts rather than refreshing; compare one-way fares on two carriers.🧳
Moving dayCompare an extra checked bag (often $75–150) against shipping a box; airlines sell excess baggage in advance for less than at the airport.Planning a scouting trip
- Fly into one hub and out of another if you're comparing cities.
- For the relocation flight, excess baggage often beats shipping for a first move.
- Pet-in-cabin and in-hold policies differ by carrier; confirm before booking.
