We've been doing this for years, which means getting that great deal on a Cape Town flight is easy-peasy. You can pocket that extra cash for more than just getting from point A to point B with a few simple steps.
What is the best day of the week to book a flight?
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. Most people opt to depart at the beginning or end of the week.
- Thursday and Saturday—Get a head start on that Friday crowd. This also works on your return flight. Shorten your holiday 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?
Spending the weekend at your destination, like Cape Town, usually means a cheaper return ticket since most people fly during this time. Good thing to tell your boss if you have a business trip -- wink-wink.
Why travel during the off-peak season?
It's all about going to a place when its weather is at its best. Summertime is when Europe, Hawaii, and Alaska are at their most popular. Florida, New Orleans, and Southern California are the most popular in springtime. Feeling the bitter cold? Well, the Caribbean Islands and Mexico can warm you up. Unless you're a ski bum -- then places like Colorado will be your winter wonderland. Who doesn't love some good fall foliage? The Pacific Northwest, Northern California, and New England are popular this time of the year. If you can plan your trip around these peak seasons, you'll not only save money, but you'll typically avoid the crowds. Win-win in our books.
Is that the lowest price?
Airlines change their rates seemingly by the minute. If a price you love pops up, then pick it! There are a lot of others that are seeking an awesome rate on a flight from Houston to Cape Town. You could miss your chance to get the carrier and the times you need.
