You're on the right page to get a killer deal on your next flight from Detroit. Whether you are a top-seeded ticket master or you're new to the jet-setting scene, read on to see how to book a too-good-to-be-true flight.

How do I get the best price on my ticket from DTT to SJC?

We've been doing this for a long time, so we know a few ways to snag the best deal on your flight to Oakland. You can pocket that extra cash for more than just getting from point A to point B with a little know-how.

Which days of the week are cheapest to fly?

It pays to be a weekday warrior. Those middle children of the work week, Tuesday and Wednesday, typically have the best rates. Next, Thursday and, surprisingly, Saturday. Most like to fly back 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 DTT can be cheaper since you'll be leaving earlier in the week. All those business travelers have less flexible itineraries, so that means more savings for you. Of course, we don't want to twist your rubber arm or anything.

Can you save while traveling during the off-peak season?

Off-peak and shoulder seasons are when most people aren't going to certain locations. So when it is 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 is where it's at. You may not get the ideal weather, but you'll typically get better prices and avoid the crowds.
