What is the cheapest day to fly?

Just like a yogi, it pays to be flexible. Tuesday and Wednesday typically have the best rates. Next, Thursday and, surprisingly, Saturday. Most people like to come back on Sunday so you can save by leaving a day earlier.

Why travel during the off-peak season?

Have good weather, will travel. For example, Europe, Hawaii, and Alaska are big hits in the summer. Popular Spring Break destinations are New Orleans, California, and Florida. Feeling the bitter cold? Well, the Caribbean Islands and Mexico can warm you up. Unless you're a ski bum -- then places like Colorado will be your winter wonderland. Who doesn't love some good fall foliage? 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!
