You're on the right page to get an awesome rate on your upcoming flight from Austin.

How can you get a great rate on tickets from AUS to HOU?
We've been doing this for years, so we know a couple ways to find the best price on your flight to Houston. You can pocket that extra cash for more than just getting from point A to point B with a little know-how.
What is the cheapest day to fly?
With the right attitude and flexibility, you can fly for less. Below are the cheapest days to fly:
- Tuesday and Wednesday—You know how most stores are not crowded midweek? Same thing here. So, get on while the getting is good.
- Thursday and Saturday—Get a head start on that Friday crowd. This also works on your return flight. Shorten your vacay by a day and increase your savings.
- Monday through Thursday—If you're flying internationally, deals are often available when departing these days.
What's the Saturday night stay rule?
If you stay through the weekend, generally that return ticket to AUS can be cheaper since you'll be leaving earlier in the week. All those business travelers have less elastic itineraries, so that means more savings for you. Of course, we don't want to twist your rubber arm or anything.
Why travel during the off-peak season?
Off-peak and shoulder seasons are when most people aren't going to certain locations. So when it's cold, most people head to warmer places like the Caribbean, Mexico, Hawaii, etc., just like our feathered friends. But in the summer, you'll find that Europe is where it's at. You can usually save on your flight when you fly when everyone else isn't.
Is that the lowest price?
Airlines change their rates frequently. If you discover the price you like, then grab it. You're not the only vacation-hungry person longing for an amazing bargain on a flight from Austin to Houston. You might lose your opportunity to get the flight and the times you want.
