Or is there a better day to do it? Hereâs the definitive answer: The best time to book an airline ticket is Tuesday afternoon, when most airlines have matched fare sales from competitors. Hereâs why: Airline officials come to work on Monday and decide what airfares should be (based on how seats sold over the weekend).
In general, airlines offer their cheapest flights during business hours, when value-minded business travelers are booking flights. The best single time and day to book a flight is 3 p.m. Eastern time on Tuesday, according to Rick Seaney, CEO of FareCompare. Early morning or late-night flights are less popular, and therefore cheaper. Purchasing a so-called red-eye flight may also save you money.
