You're on the right page to grab a killer deal on your next flight from St. Louis. Whether you are an airline aficionado or only have a few trips under your wing, read below to score the best deal on your next flight.

How can you get a great rate on tickets from St. Louis to San Francisco?

We've been doing this for a long time, which means getting that great deal on a San Francisco flight is easy-peasy. 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?

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. So, get on while the getting is good.
  • 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?

If you stay through the weekend, generally that return ticket to STL can be cheaper since you'll be leaving earlier in the week. All those business travelers have less elastic itineraries, so that means more savings for you. We're all for that!

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

It's all about going to a place when its weather is at its best. For example, Europe, Hawaii, and Alaska are big hits in the summer. Florida, New Orleans, and Southern California are the most popular in springtime. Winter is prime for Mexico and the Caribbean because of its warm weather, as well as ski and snowboard destinations like the Colorado Rockies. During autumn, Northern California, the Pacific Northwest, and New England draw visitors. If you can plan your trip around these peak seasons, you'll not only save money, but you'll typically avoid the crowds. Win-win in our books.

If the price is right, pick it!

Airline carriers change their rates by the hour sometimes. If a price you love pops up, then get it. Unsurprisingly, you're not the only one waiting a great price on a ticket from St. Louis to San Francisco. You might miss your opportunity to dial in the time and the flight you wanted.
