Which days of the week are cheapest to fly?

• Tuesday and Wednesday—You know how most stores are not crowded midweek? Same thing here. Most people opt to depart at the beginning or end of the week.
• Thursday and Saturday—Get a head start on that Friday crowd. This also works on your return flight. Shorten your holiday by a day and increase your savings.
• Monday through Thursday—If you're flying internationally, deals are often available when departing these days.

Can staying the weekend get me a cheaper ticket?

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

What are shoulder seasons?

Off-peak and shoulder seasons are when most vacationers aren't traveling to certain locations. So when it's cold, most people head to warmer places 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 really popular. You may not get the ideal weather, but you'll typically get better rates and be there when it is not flocked by out of towners.

Jump on that great rate
