Is it cheaper to fly during certain times of the year or on certain days of the week? |
Travel Info I'm browsing ticket prices to fly from MO to Baltimore, and I was curious if ticket prices fluxuate based on the time of year and if it's cheaper to fly out on a weekday as opposed to a weekend. Travel Tips Yes. In the summer time tickets are often much more expensive. It is not always better to fly on a weekday, but sometimes that will be your best shot. Tickets are usually a lot cheaper if you book well in advance. A ticket for August 22 could be $50 cheaper or more than a ticket for July 22. A lot of times the sites like orbitz.com have good deals, and they let you see the prices of different airlines at the same time, but check the airlines website first. Airlines you might want to check out with some reasonable fares for the most part are: www.aa.com www.delta.com www.united.com www.southwest.com Travel sites include: www.orbitz.com www.travelocity.com www.expedia.com www.cheaptickets.com Others When flying there are high(expansive) and low seasons(cheap) related to vacation days. yes there are different rates definitely. Try to take off on a tues, wed, or Thurs, as travel over the wekend costs more. Also avoid holiday travel if possible. years travelling, buying tickets online, and advice from travel agent friend I used to have yes -- and time of day -- use orbitz to check yes. if you think about it holidays and weekends are when the majority of people fly. weddings, vacations, time off etc. no one is going to leave for these on a tuesday or something. and holidays are the busiest times of the year for flying as well. so if you were to get a flight to, let's say, somewhere in upper new york for a tuesday, it would be cheaper thanif you were to book that same flight for the weekend. also matters where you are flying to as well. hot spots will generally be more expensive than less than fun places. JetBlue generally is the cheapest all around. |
