How do you get the best deal on a ticket from CHI to MEL?
Hotwire has been doing this for years, so we know a couple ways to get the best price on your flight to Melbourne. You'll make spending less look so very good with a few simple steps.
What is the cheapest day to fly?
It pays to be a weekday warrior. Tuesday and Wednesday typically have the best rates. Next, Thursday and, surprisingly, Saturday. Most people like to come back on Sunday so you can save by leaving a day earlier.
Can staying the weekend get me a cheaper ticket?
Spending the weekend at your destination, like Melbourne, usually means a less-expensive return ticket since most people fly during this time. Of course, we don't want to twist your rubber arm or anything.
Why travel during the off-peak season?
There's good reason that many people travel during certain times of the year -- they want to enjoy incredible weather. Summertime is when Europe, Hawaii, and Alaska are at their most popular. During spring, New Orleans, Florida, and California open their arms to tourists. Winter is prime for Mexico and the Caribbean because of its warm weather, as well as ski and snowboard destinations like the Colorado Rockies. Who doesn't love some good fall foliage? The Pacific Northwest, Northern California, and New England are popular this time of the year. Flying during less popular periods can mean extra money in your wallet -- yes, please!
