I will never forget my first Grand Canyon plane tour. It was so amazing and I had so much fun, I decided then and there that I'd try to help as many folks as possible see the National Park by air. A lot of people have tight budgets though and that is why I want to share what I have learned about saving money on airplane tours of the Grand Canyon.

One thing I have learned is to look for coupons before you book your flight. Besides that, there are some other money saving tricks and they include buying your tickets online and booking in advance. Let's take a look.

1. Book Ahead

You'd think that booking ahead would be common sense, but way too many people procrastinate. I always recommend that folks book their tours at least a week in advance, but if you can swing it, two weeks is even better. Waiting 'til the last minute (a day or so before the date you want) means several bad things will happen. For example:

- You might also miss getting the best departure times

- You'll have fewer tours from which to choose; and

- If you wait until the day of your flight, the price will be a lot ...
... higher, so booking early is an easy way to save money

2. Book Your Trip Over The Internet

You will find that Internet rates are the lowest as long as you stay away from sites such as Orbitz, Travelocity, and Expedia. Instead, go right to the tour operator's website. They run the tours, set the prices, and can offer the steepest discounts.

Just be sure to book your tour and complete the transaction on their website. That is how you qualify for the lowest Internet only price.

About Using A Coupon Code

These two tricks will help you shave money off the price of your tour. But you can also save money using a coupon code. These codes are a string of numbers and letters you copy into a form when you book your trip online. These have expiration dates, so be sure to use them while they are still good. It's easy to do, and well worth it if you follow these steps:

1. Go to the tour company's site and select your desired tour

2. Pick the date and time you want to take your tour

3. Enter all the necessary information about the passengers

4. Type in the coupon code

That's all there is to it! If the coupon is valid, you will see the price lower on the form immediately. You will be surprised at how much you will save when you use a coupon online and book your tour early.

Coupon codes are available for the South Rim and West Rim. If you plan to depart from Las Vegas, you can fly to the West Rim or the South Rim, but when you fly out of Arizona, you will fly to the South Rim only. Currently, no flights connect the two rims. Likewise, there aren't any flights from the South Rim that land on the North Rim.

Wrapping Up

This information will help you save money on your airplane tour of the Grand Canyon. I know these tips have saved me a pile of cash over the years, especially when I've combined a coupon code with buying online and booking ahead. They will help you save too so you can work a plane tour into your budget.

Now let's get you in the air above the Grand Canyon!
