We don’t want to burst your bubble if you always book your flights on Tuesdays because you heard fares were cheaper, but it is, unfortunately, just a rumor. That said, there are ideal windows when you should book your flight for cheaper fares. You’ll usually find the best prices one to two months in advance for domestic flights and three to five months in advance for international flights. I use [Google Flights]( to monitor prices and book when I see a reasonable fare. If the price goes down, most airlines allow you to [rebook your flight]( at the lower price without a change fee. And while there is no magical day when it is best to book your flight, flying on certain days of the week can save you money. If your schedule allows, booking a Sunday or midweek flight is cheaper than flying on a Friday or Saturday. Of course, we also recommend [booking flights with a credit card]( that can help you earn rewards for future flights and maximize your trip with perks like lounge access and trip protection benefits. Before you take off, here are a few more tips for saving money on your next flight: - [The best time to book flights for the cheapest airfare in 2024]( - [The best airline credit cards with annual fees under $100]( - [Maximize your airfare: The best credit cards for booking flights]( - [11 strategies to find cheap airfare]( - [Best times to book business-class award flights]( Posts in this newsletter contains references to products from one or more of our advertisers.
