Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from BFL to XWA last minute?
Booking your flight from Meadows Field Airport (BFL) to Basin Intl. Airport (XWA) at the last minute could save you dollars if you’re lucky enough to find a real steal. However, fares typically don’t come down in price closer to the departure date. If you procrastinate, flights could also be sold out or the best seats taken (we hope you like the middle seat!). If you don’t want to risk it, book well in advance of when you want to leave. It’s worth noting that some of the best deals can be found up to 12 months in advance. If your preferred carrier hasn’t released its airfares yet, check back regularly as offers are updated on Expedia constantly.
