Of course it's beneficial! 15% discount. I use it all the time. For example, at the beginning of March I book for May. There are disadvantages: you can not refuse the tour or change. I don't fly on charter flights, so the cheapest fare tickets are also non-refundable and non-exchangeable. If you are sure that your plans will not change in 2 months, then early booking justifies itself.

we booked at the end of March on July 31. And closer to the departure, the prices for the same hotel and for that date were 18 thousand more expensive.

And everything turned out the opposite for me - we paid for an early order for 1.5 months (I was also worried that nothing would interfere). And a friend, a week before departure, to our hotel and even our flight, paid the same price as we did on early booking.

this year we booked bergamot early (at the beginning of February) it turned out to be 30% cheaper than if we had bought it at the end of May .... we only go from the tour ... and the tour went on to explain to us what changes ... in February ( early) we took two adults and a child of 12 years old (ME + SON 17 YEARS AND DAUGHTER 12 YEARS) BUT by the end of April it turned out that the son would not be able to go .. we insisted on a change and instead of the son we took the daughter of our friends 13 years old .... those. they didn’t pay anything extra, they just changed the name and surname on the plane ticket (well, the hotel accommodation is the same, only the surname has changed) .. and the daughter’s parents paid us extra for the ticket ...

This year I booked Boran Mare 5 * in February with a flight on June 5th. I paid 106 thousand (with fuel (2 adults + children 2 years 10 months). In June, the price from Anex (bought from them) was 18 thousand more expensive. But if you count for sure, the dollar exchange rate fell somewhat by June , so I won 10-12 thousand (this is from Anex; Sunrise had a price of 135 thousand in June). In June, Boran was already in the stop for all TOs. But earlier booking is beneficial primarily because it is possible to buy exactly that hotel, which is needed, and which by the beginning of the high season just quickly goes to the stop.And at a lower price.And do not forget to take out travel insurance.

I booked a hotel in February with a check-in in June. In May, the price of this tour (a triple for three people) rose by 28 thousand rubles. A week before departure, the same tour cost 5 thousand rubles more than the February price. it still makes sense...

I will also support early booking especially for high season. + of such a booking not only in cost, but also in the fact that then there may simply be no places in the selected hotel. And if it suddenly happens that by some miracle you see a much lower cost for the same dates and at the same hotel a few days before departure from another operator (but this is unlikely to happen), then you can refuse the purchased tour and redeem for a cheaper cost.

there are penalties, but suddenly the price is so cheap that it will cover the fines. Not so long ago this situation was discussed on the forum. The girl passed the tour and bought a new one. It ended up being cheaper.
But this rarely happens, so it's better in advance.

In my opinion, early booking is advisable if the tourist is sure that NOTHING will happen to him and his companions during these months before the holiday. Early booking when there are children, both going on vacation and staying at home, is unwise. And booking for six months is generally beyond.

Each of us is not the Lord to be sure that NOTHING will happen. But it's still wiser to choose a decent hotel in advance, and above all in the interests of the children, so as not to choose one suckier than the other just before leaving for TA. At the same time, do not forget to take out travel insurance. Here in October I am going to warmer climes for a week, with my husband, without a granddaughter, and now, in principle, the hotel and the country are not important to me, because. This is the second vacation in a year and I just want to save money.

in any case, maybe ... you can buy a ticket a week in advance and break a leg, for example, on the day before departure .... and children are unpredictable and can get sick the day before the trip ... so you won’t guess ...

We booked a hotel in Keier (Kirish) at the beginning of March for September.
5* cost $1960 for two for 11 days. Now it costs $3300.
In my opinion it is beneficial)))

But it’s realistic to book now (beginning of June) for the second half of December, i.e. six months ahead? I heard that it's profitable - but I can't find any information anywhere ... And it's cheap to go to Cuba.
