  • If your plans aren't written in stone, click on the 'Show flexible dates' link to see the flight deals for a selection of departure dates. Go with any suitable cheaper fare you find.

  • The early bird catches the most rewarding savings, so book your tickets the moment you know your travel dates. The most affordable fares sell out quickly and prices generally rise as the departure date gets closer.
  • Think about bundling your flights, hotels and car rentals into a package deal with Orbitz — the more you book, the more you save.

What do I need for the flight to Helsinki?
The trick to having a worry-free flight is to come prepared. Here are a couple of tips to take note of before you take off:

  • Nothing is more important than having your travel documents. Which to bring and how many depend on whether you're traveling international or domestic. Be sure to double check with your airline. In both cases, you'll need to present some sort of government-issued ID.
  • Pack some extra entertainment for your long trip to Helsinki. When you're done watching that series on your phone, give your eyes a much-needed break from all that screen time and listen to an audio book.
  • Temperatures in the cabin can change rapidly, so it's wise to bring an extra layer. Also consider wearing compression socks. They can help prevent swelling and blood clots.

  • Flexibility is everything. By being open to a few travel dates, you'll have better odds of landing a deal on your airfares.
  • Low-cost airlines offer business-class seating at a fraction of the usual cost. Skip the full-service carriers and check out these cheaper options.
  • Bid for an upgrade in online auctions or upgrade with your frequent flyer points.
