What is the cheapest day to fly?

Going with the flow can pay dividends when it comes to getting an affordable flight. Tuesday and Wednesday typically have the best rates. Next, Thursday and, surprisingly, Saturday. Most like to fly back from their trip on Sunday so you can save by leaving a day earlier.

What's the Saturday night stay rule?

Staying the weekend at your destination, like Cali, usually means lower airfare since most people fly during this time. Good thing to tell your boss if you have a business trip -- wink-wink.

Can you save while traveling during the off-peak season?

Shoulder or off-peak seasons are when most people aren't flying to certain locations. So when it is chilly, 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 may not get the ideal weather, but you'll typically get better prices and avoid the crowds.

Is that the lowest price?

You're not the only person longing for a superb price on a flight from Chicago to Cali. You may miss your opportunity to get the carrier and the schedule you need.
