There would be 2 free seats promotions offered by Airasia each year and each sale covers flights between a 6 month period starting from 6 months down the road, normally. Not unexpected, the current Airasia free seats promotion if for flights in between Oct this year and April next year. Though  marketed as free seat promotion, not all flights are zero fared and you still need to pay for airport tax and fuel surcharge.

First, we need to ask ourselves these questions. Do you have a travel plan in mind? Have you decided where and when to travel? Do you know who are going to travel with you? Are you booking flights for the sake of booking just because they are cheaper? Any impulsive buying occurred?

Do you have all the answers? Yes? Then read on. No. Please read on too.

Here are some tips which help you to really benefit from the Airasia free seats promotion.

Fix up your travel plan

Fix up your travel plan and all other things before the sale begins. In order to successfully grab the lowest fares on offer, you need to decide where to travel, when to travel, and who to travel with, well ahead. Only then you can narrow down your flight search and book them immediately before the price went up.

Add the travelers details to your favourite list

Key in your favourite payment option details

Another feature to filled up before your booking. Key in your favourite payment option details for the same reason.

Have a full understanding from your travel mates

Have a full understanding from your travel mates on the decision to either look for the lowest fares or the best travel epriod, if you are booking on behalf of other travel mates.

Don’t waste time on Add-on items

Don’t waste any time on choosing, decising and buying any add-on items such as checked baggage, on-board meals, premium flatbed or seat selection. They can all be purchased after confirming your booking up to 48 hours of your flight departure.

Buy Your travel insurance add-on

Don’t waste time on deciding if travel insurance is needed. Just buy it for full peace of mind!

Once you are able to stick to these rules, you will surely save a lot of money on your flights.

If you like these booking tips, here is another little tips to grab the Airasia free seats.

Nowadays, Airasia always start their sales with a pre-sale for BIG Shot members.

You would be surprise to find out how easy you can find the best deal. Don’t worry if you have insufficient BIG Shot points to redeem. Airasia is kind enough to convert any balance BIG Shot points needed to monetary term, so you can still pay the balance by any other payment option. Isn’t this great?
