Flexibility brings more options

Look for the best fares by mixing and matching among available carriers and considering combinations not offered on a single ticket.

When to book flights from Abbotsford for best value

Aim for shoulder seasons and watch prices actively. Spring and fall generally see fewer crowds than peak summer and the winter holidays, which can bring better value.

Timing your search and using Kiwi tools that do the legwork

For peak dates and long weekends, expand that window. Set up a route and let Kiwi.com monitor it with Set a Price Alert so you can book when the fare moves in your favor, with alerts sent via email or push notification.

Advanced tools for trip planning

If you are planning a multi city trip, the Nomad Search Tool can quickly sort three or more stops and find a cheap order to visit them without spreadsheet gymnastics.
