What is the best day of the week to book a flight?

Why are flights cheaper if you stay over the weekend?

Staying the weekend at your destination, like Tahoe City, usually means lower airfare 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?

Off-peak and shoulder seasons are when most vacationers aren't traveling to certain locations. So when it is cold, most people head off to warmer places like the Caribbean, Mexico, Hawaii, etc., just like the birds (they had it figured out). But in the summer, you'll find that Europe is really popular. If you want lower airfare and avoid the crowds, travel when everyone else isn't.
