How can you get a great rate on tickets from SJC to SJO?

We've been doing this for years, which means getting that great deal on a San José 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 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. 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.

Why are flights cheaper if you stay over the weekend?

Spending the weekend at your destination, like San José, 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?

Shoulder or off-peak seasons are when most vacationers aren't flying to certain locations. So when it's chilly, 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. You may not get the ideal weather, but you'll generally get better rates and avoid the mobs of tourist.

Jump on that great rate

Airline carriers change their rates seemingly by the minute. If you peep the price you like, then grab it. There are a lot of others that are longing for a stellar bargain on a ticket from San Francisco to San José. You could lose your opportunity to get the carrier and the times you want.
