When is the best time to buy a plane ticket before prices go sky high?

Question

I'm flying Denver to Phoenix on a Friday returning on a Sunday sometime in October... I have generally thought the earlier and the later you book to the flying date the more expensive it is.

Answer 1

usually early. I think 3 weeks is when you start to notice a major increase in pricing.

It also depends on if the flight is full or not sometimes you can get a flight out for a few hundred bucks if it is nearly empty just so they can put people in the seats.

I would say if you dont have your ticket in hand about 3 to 4 weeks before the flight prepare to pay.

Answer 2

The best time to buy a plane ticket is at the last minute. If you live in Canada, there are sites were you can get last minute vacations. They do this to fill up all the seats on the plane.

Here's a list:

Avion Travel

Red Tag

Flight Centre

Exit Now

and

Sell off Vacations

I reccemmond Red Tag, Exit Now and Sell Off Vacations.

Good Luck :)
