Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from RSW to CMH last minute?
Being a spontaneous soul is an amazing way to travel, but it isn’t always the wisest method to get your hands on a cheap flight. Think about booking your RSW to John Glenn Intl. Airport journey ahead of time rather than waiting till the last minute. Based on flight pricing and demand studies in 2022, we have found that the best time to book domestic flights is between 28 – 35 days ahead of the departure date, and international flights three to four months in advance. We recommend saving that spontaneity for when you reach your destination!
