We've been doing this for years, so we know a few ways to get the best deal on your flight to New Orleans. You'll make spending less look so very good 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.
What's the Saturday night stay rule?
Spending the weekend at your destination, like New Orleans, usually means a less-expensive ticket since most people fly during this time. We are all for that!
What are shoulder seasons?
Off-peak and shoulder 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 the birds (they had it figured out). But in the summer months, you'll find that Europe gets busy. If you want to save and avoid the crowds, travel when everyone else isn't.
