Rossen Reports: This is the cheapest day to fly
It’s a new year, and many people have their eyes set on traveling. But with prices being so high, people might be hesitant to book anything.
Every few months, travel apps like Hopper collect data to make sure people have the latest ways to save money when booking travel.
For booking domestic flights, start monitoring prices three to four months before your departure date. Then book one to two months before.
For international, monitor flights six to seven months in advance. The sweet spot to book is three to five months before.
And if you fly midweek, usually on Wednesdays, you can save 17% on domestic airfares and 9% on international travel.
For hotels, if you check in Sunday through Tuesday, you can save 25% of more per night.
If you can't take too much time off work or you don't want your kids to miss too much school, shift your weekend stay to start on Saturday and end on Monday morning to save 10% off peak weekend prices.
