What is the best day to buy airline tickets?

Yesterday.

The second Tuesday of next week.

(Anyone want to bet my simple thumb downers do not understand what I just said?) Because I know they are dumb I'll tell them, I said the same thing as the other answers here.

There's no best day to buy, but better days to book a flight for, ie, midweek can have less demand and so can be cheaper than the weekend. Also booking in advance is advisable, as there are normally any last minute deals on airline tickets.

You should update your question of ask a separate question than answe your own with another question!

In truth there are no perfect sires for bookings, you San use skyscanner or kayak, to compare prices and dates, more often than not yo airline will offer a similar price on their website, and it maybe safer and more convenient to book with the airline.

There's no best day to purchase. There used to be theories or truth to airlines releasing more tickets on certain days of the week, but that's not the case these days. Prices are based on availability now and can also move based on length of time until travel. Kayak.com has a tracker telling you, based on their experience, whether you can expect a ticket price to go up or down soon.

Today - right now. We usually pounce on the tickets at the 330 day, or As soon as possible to that. Tickets almost never go down - and often go up. We prefer FC seats - and are Delta members and AMEX Delta Platinum card holders - so for short hauls, we sometimes gamble at buy Comfort, and then immediately put in for an upgrade to FC. Often works for us.

It was last week. You missed it.

The day that the flight you want is cheapest.
Usually the first hour of the day the flight information is posted about a year ahead

If the Airline announces a seat sale you have about 24-48 hours to get it.
Suggest you sign up for a fare alert on the many sites that offer it.

On Flyday. Get it?

Sunday

Day before flight if plane is near empty. 3 to 4 months if you think oil prices will rise. $1000 dollar tickets to the tropics one way Can drop to $300 return. If in January if going far north. No one wants to leave then. But it is not day.

  • What is the best site to buy plane tickets online? I want to book a flight for a one off trip, I googled my city to my destination and I saw listings from around $175 (spirit airlines) up to $500 (United and other airlines). What are the reasons for such a price gap in airline tickets? Is this accurate? What should I be expecting to pay from Chicago to Texas and what site do you recommend?

  • Can you buy extra water on Malaysian airline flight? Flying from Kuala Lumpar and there's a sercurity check before gate with liquid allowance restrictions. They serve 100ml cups through out flight but this is not enough for me. Oh yeah and I'm flying to London Heathrow are the restrictions different, as the flight where they had restrictions was a domestic transfer.
