阅读理解:
If you take vacation time in the coming year and plan on flying, here are
some shopping tips to give your undivided attention to:
1. When to buy
If you are shopping for domestic flights, check prices on Tuesday afternoons. This is an old tip but still valid because most US carriers continue to release sales on Tuesday morning, and competitors quickly drop their fares to match the better deals.
2. When to fly
Weekdays continue to be generally cheaper times to fly than weekends for most flights. In the US specifically the cheapest days are typically Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday. A good itinerary for the expensive US spring break travel period is Tuesday to Saturday; it won't be cheap exactly, but it will save you money (in most cases) over weekend-to-weekend travel.
3. Direct vs. connecting flights
Compare the price of direct with connecting flights. Sometimes adding a stop to your route will save you money, and it might be enough to endure the extra-long flying day. Some examples:
Boston to Seattle: $247 direct, $234 one-stop
San Francisco to Raleigh/Durham: $ 553 direct, $ 362 one-stop
Okay, the savings on Boston—Seattle might not be worth it to you, but I'll bet you'll think twice about the direct flight for San Francisco to Raleigh.
4. Compare, Compare, Compare
Stifle the impulse to go to your favorite airline site to purchase tickets without doing any comparison; it's a recipe for disaster.
Example: Let's say you want to fly from New York to London and figure your favorite US legacy carrier will get you there for the best price.
Airline price: $554 round-tripComparison price: $486
Obviously, the legacy carrier did not have the cheapest flight, but wait, there's more: the comparison site also showed a cheaper flight from the same legacy carrier ($521). See what you're missing when you fail to compare.
