Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from Durango-La Plata County Airport to Grand Junction Regional Airport (GJT) last minute?
Booking your trip from DRO to GJT at the last minute could save you some dough if you get lucky and find an amazing deal. However, fares don’t usually get cheaper as the departure date nears.

If your preferred carrier hasn’t released its fares yet, check back regularly as offers are updated on Expedia constantly.
