What are the secrets to getting low airfare prices?

Answer by  Dean (4035)

There is no secret. Discounted fares are available all the time. Airlines list the last few remaining seats on flights scheduled in the near future. They also offer a specific number of discounted seats on specific flights at specific times of the day and times of the year. The key is to check often and be patient.

It is best to search for fares late on Sunday night/early Monday morning. This is when airlines release their lowest fares and you may be able to snag a deal if your timing is good. Also, if you are a student or a teacher, try Student Travel Association for special bargains.

Be flexible in your dates and time for travel. Returning late at night, leaving early in the morning and don't travel during major public school holidays.

I found that if you look on the internet on Monday thru wed they are the best days to get cheaper flights and check all of the airlines.

Forget using all the popular travel sites, go directly to the airlines sites themselves. It helps to be flexible with your dates, most sites have a way to search easily for the days just before or after your planned date. Enter your search dates and see the bargains available!
