To increase your chances of getting the lowest fare available, read the tips below. The best international fares often require you to make reservation 30 days in advance.
Airlines sell only a limited number of seats at the lowest fares.
When those seats sell out, the price goes up. Making a reservation as soon as you know your travel dates increases your chances of finding a fare you can live with. Fly on a weekday Flights on Monday Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday usually have the lowest fares. Saturday flights occasionally have discount fares, but, as a rule, it's more expensive to fly on a weekend than a weekday. Stay over a Saturday night Most low fares require that you stay over at least one Saturday night before your return flight.
