- Abstract
This paper examines the temporal changes of return airfares on online travel agency (OTA) and travel metasearch websites from Budapest to three short-haul destinations (London, Paris, Barcelona) for fixed departure dates in high and shoulder season. During the study, we created a database containing more than 31 000 ticket prices over a 182 day period. Empirical findings showed that not a single website offered lowest airfares consistently and metasearch sites outperformed OTAs in almost any cases by offering lower airfares. Results also indicated that tickets for shoulder season were significantly cheaper than for high season and ticket prices tend to be more expensive on Mondays and Sundays.
