How do I get the best price on my flight fromShanghai to Los Angeles?
We've been doing this for a long time, so we know a few ways to snag the best price on your flight to Los Angeles. You can pocket that extra cash for more than just getting from point A to point B with a little know-how.
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.
Can staying the weekend get me a cheaper ticket?
If you stay through the weekend, generally that return ticket to SHA 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. Good thing to tell your boss if you have a business trip -- wink-wink.
Can you save while traveling during the off-peak season?
Shoulder or off-peak seasons are when most people aren't traveling to certain locations. So when it's chilly, most people head off to warmer places like the Caribbean, Mexico, Hawaii, etc., just like the birds (they had it figured out). But during the summer, you'll find that Europe gets busy. You can usually save on your flight when you fly when everyone else isn't.
If the price is right, pick it!
Unsurprisingly, you're not the only vacation-hungry person seeking an awesome bargain on a ticket from Shanghai to Los Angeles. You might miss out on your opportunity to dial in the time and the flight you wanted.
