It’s a question I get asked frequently. Is there one magic time when it’s best to book your flight to get the best price?
The answer is that there’s not one magic time, but there is a magic window.
With some holiday exceptions, book your ticket at least three weeks before departing, but no more than two and a half months in advance.
If you wait until less than a week out from a planned trip to book your flight, you’ll be paying about 59% more for your ticket.
And if you book too early, you will also be paying higher prices because the airline has yet to determine if the load factor for your desired flight meets its own projections, and it’s too early to adjust the ticket price.
One more thing is that the cheapest day of the week to travel is Wednesday.
