Tips
to find low airfare!
Tip #1: Make your reservation
early.
Many discount fares require that you make
a reservation 7, 14 or 21 days in advance,
depending on the fare. The best international
fares often require a reservation 30 days
in advance. Making a reservation as soon as
you know your travel dates increases your
chances of finding a great fare.
Tip
#2: Flying on a weekday usually costs less.
Flights departing on Tuesday, Wednesday
and Thursday usually offer the lowest fares.
Fares are sometimes (but not always) higher
on Monday and Friday than on other weekdays.
Saturday flights occasionally have discount
fares, but as a rule it's more expensive
to fly on a weekend than a weekday.
Tip
#3: Stay over a Saturday night
Most low fares require that you stay over
at least one Saturday night before your
return flight. However, some fares may only
require you to stay a minimum of 3 or 4
days.
Tip
#4: Consider an airport in the surrounding
area.
You may enjoy significant savings if you
are willing to fly into nearby airports.
For example, when traveling to Los Angeles
(LAX), you may want to consider flying into
the Burbank (BUR), Orange County (SNA) or
Ontario (ONT) airports. Similarly, the cost
of a trip to San Francisco (SFO) might be
reduced by flying into San Jose (SJC) or
Oakland (OAK), while travel to Miami (MIA)
may be less expensive if you fly into Ft.
Lauderdale (FLL).
Tip
#5: Try an earlier or later travel date.
To get the lowest roundtrip fare, the same
fare must be available on both the departing
and return flights you select. If the fare
is sold out on either of these, the price
you end up with will be much higher. If
possible, consider flying on another date.
