The thought of booking a plane ticket could be extremely stressful, which is why I want to give a shoutout to Facetime for being another option to see my grandma without me ever having to visit her. But for those who prefer flying, the folks at CheapAir have the answer for you.
The most important number here is 54; this is the average number of days before flying that tickets are at their lowest price. If you happen to miss that cutoff date, then you should aim for the “prime booking window” which falls between 21 to 112 days before takeoff. This prime booking window has the lowest possible prices.
What this pretty much means is that you shouldn’t wait until the last minute to book your flight, as research finds that those tickets can cost you up to $200 more. And if you’re thinking of flying out to a popular destination at a popular time, the research shows that you should definitely aim to book your tickets way before the prime booking window.
Those flying to Boise, Idaho, shouldn’t worry about this.
So get those tickets early and this won’t be you:
