When is the best time to buy your air fare?

pamelajm88 asked:


I plan on going to Las Vegas the last week of April and have been checking the prices online for airfare but they seem to me to be staying about the same, I was wondering is it cheaper to wait and buy my tickets the closer it gets to my vacation. I usually buy through Alaska Airlines.

    Buy them as soon as possible. The fares for flights always go higher as the flight nears. Even if those sale fare you’re seeing aren’t taken by the time the flight leaves, they are only on sale for a certain amount of time and then you cannot purchase them anymore.

    I’d try other carriers to see if you can find a better deal someplace else. But they would be the same as far as their prices going up the closer it gets to the flight date.

    I am going to give you the only piece of advice that was given to me for finding cheap travel deals, and it works to this day… Compare as many travel websites as you can as often as you can. Since you have a few months, start searching today and search the flights or hotels or whatever you need every week until the month before you are going. If anything is unusually cheaper, book it on that date. I would definitely recommend checking out the website BookMe. You can compare ALL the reputable travel sites from one location, and save tons of money. Good luck and check out the link below, and you will be all set.
