Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from MSP to FON last minute?

Booking your flight from Wold–Chamberlain Field to FON at the last minute could save you some dough if you strike it lucky and find a real steal. However, fares usually don’t drop in price closer to the departure date. If you take a wait-and-see approach, flights could also be sold out or the best seats gone (hello, middle seat!). If you’d prefer to play it safe, book well ahead of when you want to leave. It’s worth noting that some of the best deals can be found up to a year in advance. If your favorite airline hasn’t released its airfares yet, check back regularly as deals are updated on Expedia all the time.
