Auto insurance is obviously different depending on the type of coverage you buy, but since the national average expenditure for car insurance is $795 a year and PA's average is $820, it can easily be inferred that Pennsylvanians are likely to pay a bit more on average for just about any type of coverage.
To answer that question, airfare shopping engine CheapAir.com monitored fares for more than 4 million flights in 2013 over a booking period ranging from 320 days in advance to one day in advance. Its researchers found that fares for domestic flights were lowest 54 days in advance.
However, there are exceptions to these findings. Although you usually wonât get a deal if you wait to book a flight 14 days or fewer in advance, you can save by purchasing tickets for some flights more than 54 days before departure.
