Expedia’s recent analysis reveals that common travel booking myths are outdated. Contrary to popular belief, summer is not the most expensive time to travel; in fact, August is cheaper for domestic and international trips compared to February and March. Additionally, booking flights on Sundays yields significant savings over weekdays. Data analysis indicates that travelers can save as much as 17% by flying on Saturdays or Thursdays. The report underscores the importance of using technology to find deals and understand traveler rights regarding cancellations.
Airfares are down, the end of summer is the cheapest time to fly, and booking too far out can actually cost you money - these realities fly in the face of advice floating around the internet.
In fact, domestic flights are about 6 percent cheaper and international flights are about 17 percent cheaper when booking on a Sunday compared to Monday or Friday.
It turns out summer, for example, is not the most expensive time to travel, and an August trip may actually save big bucks.
Setting up features like price alerts and letting technology find the best value can also help travelers save money on flights.
