The best time to get airplane tickets Even though, you can relate an increase or decrease in the prices of flight tickets to their demand and supply, and the time when you purchase them; there is no concrete way to tell when you can purchase them at the lowest price. How many times have you bought air tickets to find out that their prices went down a day later? Sometimes you even come to know that you could have had an amazing deal a week later if you had been patient. Following are a few tips that will help you mostly save money on purchasing air-tickets:

What to do? Book now or wait? Much research has been done regarding the prices of tickets and what would be the exact time to purchase them to save money most of the time. It has been recorded that waiting for two weeks before the date of the flight will not save them any much in the long run. Even if there is a deal on the prices, there are high chances that you will end up paying more because you will get the deal on the lastminute prices. On the other hand, buying way before the date of flight – three and a half months before – is also known as a failed deal most of the times. Of-course, the fifty-four day rule, even though not being universally true, sounds like a good idea most of the times. Fifty four days have been recorded to be the best time before the flight when you should get your tickets.

The best day of the week for flying According to recent data, it has been found that most people prefer to fly on a Tuesday, while least number of people fly on Sundays. Hence, Tuesday having the highest number of sales, has the highest demand of tickets and therefore the greatest prices. This means that the best prices that you can get will be for a flight on Sunday.

International travelling deals Even though international flights cost more than the local flights; there are high chances that international fliers land on a good deal for flight tickets. International flares fluctuate very little between ten months and three months, which will give them a very large window to play with their flight tickets. In addition, keep in mind that the traditional ticket whole sellers get great discounts from airlines. They can hence, get you very good prices for international flights as compared to the third-party websites.
