How can you get a great rate on tickets from Raleigh to Columbus?

Hotwire has been in the game a long time, so we know a couple ways to get the best deal on your flight to Columbus. You'll make spending less look so very good with a few simple tips and tricks.

What is the cheapest day 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. So, get on while the getting is good.
  • 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.

Why are flights cheaper if you stay over the weekend?

If you stay through the weekend, generally that return ticket to RDU can be cheaper since you'll be leaving earlier in the week. All those business travelers have less elastic itineraries, so that means more savings for you. Good thing to tell your boss if you have a business trip -- wink-wink.

What are shoulder seasons?

Off-peak and shoulder seasons are when most vacationers aren't traveling to certain locations. So when it's cold, most people head off to warmer climates like the Caribbean, Mexico, Hawaii, etc., just like the birds (they had it figured out). But in the summer months, you'll find that Europe is really popular. 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 vacation-hungry person searching for an amazing deal on a ticket from Raleigh to Columbus. You might miss out on your chance to get the flight and the time you want.

Are there any other ways to save on my flight to Columbus?

We think the Hotwire Hot Rate is one of the best deals out there, although we may be slightly biased. You can get one of our best rates on your flight from Raleigh (RDU) to Columbus (CMH). You won't know the time and airline until after you book, but with a little risk you can get huge savings.
