What are the recommended days to fly in order to get cheap flights?
There’s no definitive rule for which days are best to fly for cheap flights to all destinations. Every airport and place is a little different and have their own specific days and times when there’s less travelers usually flying in and out, creating a higher surplus of available seats with less demand and causing airlines to charge less. There’s also seasonal and holiday travel, which creates more demand and lowers any chance of cheap flights. But there is a general pattern in how most people travel that you can take advantage of to save money on airline tickets. Most people will book to fly on Friday and the weekend and that’s why flights on those day are generally the most expensive. So, just being willing to fly Monday through Thursday will increase the likelihood of snagging cheap flights.
What are the pocket friendly months to book plane tickets?
The answer totally depends on the destination you are traveling to. During the peak tourism season of any destination, the ticket prices are on the higher side. Off seasons is the ideal time to travel however, you must ensure the climate condition must be suitable enough for the journey.
How far in advance should I book a flight to get good deals?
In general, you should book tickets at least 30 days in advance to get cost-effective ticket. If you are planning to visit during the peak season, it is advisable to book tickets 45-60 days in advance as airfare tends to rise with the ticking of the clock.
