When it comes to airfare prices, timing is the key. According to experienced travelers, the best time to book flights is about 3-6 months in advance, while domestic flights should be booked 1-3 months prior to departure. AVOID booking last-minute tickets as prices tend to increase in a blink. At Least AIM took the book 21 days before departure. Airlines usually allocate a limited number of cheaper seats for early bookers, with prices increasing the more tickets are sold.

2) Be Flexible with Travel Dates, Book on Mid-Week

Flight prices change based on demands. Instead of choosing fixed travel dates, use fare comparison tools like Google Flights or Skyscanner to find the cheapest days to fly. Airlines often refresh their booking system by Tuesday at 7PM.Mid-week flights (Tuesdays and Wednesdays) are often cheaper compared to the other days. There are statistics that show many searches for flights during the weekends, hence why it is cheaper when you book in the mid-week.
