How do you get the best deal on a flight from Washington to Cape Town?
Hotwire has been in the game a long time, so we know a few ways to snag the best price on your flight to Cape Town. 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?
It pays to be a weekday warrior. Our dear friends, Tuesday and Wednesday, typically have the best rates. Next, Thursday and, surprisingly, Saturday. Most people like to come back from their trip on Sunday so you can save by leaving a day earlier.
Why are flights cheaper if you stay over the weekend?
If you stay through the weekend, generally that return ticket to WAS can be cheaper since you'll be leaving earlier in the week. All those business travelers have less flexible schedules, so that means savings for you. Good thing to tell your boss if you have a business trip -- wink-wink.
Why travel during the off-peak season?
Have good weather, will travel. Summertime is when Europe, Hawaii, and Alaska are at their most popular. During spring, New Orleans, Florida, and California open their arms to tourists. Winter is prime for Mexico and the Caribbean because of its warm weather, as well as ski and snowboard destinations like the Colorado Rockies. Who doesn't love that harvest of autumn colors? The Pacific Northwest, Northern California, and New England are popular this time of the year. Flying during less popular periods can mean extra money in your wallet -- yes, please!
