How do you get the best deal on a flight from New Orleans to Cancun?

Hotwire has been doing this for a long time, so we know a few ways to find the best price on your flight to Cancun. You can pocket that extra cash for more than just getting from point A to point B with a few simple tips and tricks.

Which days of the week are cheapest 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. 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 vacay by a day and increase your savings.
  • Monday through Thursday—If you're flying internationally, deals are often available when departing these days.

Can staying the weekend get me a cheaper ticket?

If you stay through the weekend, generally that return ticket to MSY can be cheaper since you'll be leaving earlier in the week. All those business travelers have less flexible schedules, so that means more savings for you. Of course, we don't want to twist your rubber arm or anything.

What are shoulder seasons?

Shoulder or off-peak seasons are when most people aren't going to certain locations. So when it's cold, most people head off to warmer climates like the Caribbean, Mexico, Hawaii, etc., just like our feathered friends. But in the summer months, you'll find that Europe is really popular. If you want lower airfare and avoid the crowds, travel when everyone else isn't.

Jump on that great rate
