Tracking Flights for the Kiwi Club Convention

​​

Late April flights to San Antonio fill early as it is a popular convention city. Rather than checking fares repeatedly, the most effective approach is to track prices and watch trends. Use the guide below to do that. If ""Google Flights" is new you, then you might want to read the section below this one for complete information on how to use this tool. There is a step-by-step guide.

​

How to Track Prices (What Actually Matters)

Step 1: Open Google Flights in your Browser​

  • Select Round Trip

  • Enter your departure city and destination - San Antonio (SAT)

  • Enter your convention travel dates (late April)

  • You must enter specific dates for price tracking to work.

​

Step 2: Turn On Price Tracking

  • After results appear, look for “Track prices” near the top of the page

  • Toggle it ON

  • Make sure you are signed into your Google account

  • Google Flights will now email you when prices change for your exact route and dates.

​

Step 3: Watch the Trend, Not Daily Prices

  • Click Price Graph to see whether fares are:

    • Holding steady

    • Slowly rising

    • Already climbing

  • This trend matters more than any single day’s price.

  • For late April SAT travel, prices usually rise, not fall.​

 

Step 4: Book When Pricing Is Reasonable

  • Don’t wait for a “perfect” fare

  • When pricing looks reasonable for your dates, book

  • Many tickets allow changes if prices drop later - check for this

Do You Have PRE-CHECK?

 

If you are going to be flying and don't have PRE-CHECK then now is the time to get it. It is now cheaper and easier to get than ever. 

​

Why Pre-check?  Not only are the lines shorter, but they are hassle free. You don't have to take your shoes off, don't have to take your liquids out of your bag, and don't have to remove your laptop. 

​

How do I get it? Currently you can apply online at: https://www.tsa.gov/precheck.  Follow the instructions, and then comes the best news. Depending on where you live, you can most likely skip the airport interview and  complete the process at your local Staples! In addition, the cost has even been lowered to $78 for 5 years.

​

So if you don't have pre-check now, then get it before you fly next. It really takes a lot of stress off of getting to the gate.
