The Best Dates To Book Your Holiday Travel | Z100 New York | Intern John & Your Morning Show

Looking to travel? Travelers hoping to take to the skies for the holiday season should consider booking their trip next month for the cheapest flight.

According to our experts, October is the best time to book both Thanksgiving and Christmas months. Specifically for Christmas, cheaper domestic flights will be available during the back half of the month. If you already know where you’re going to fly, our best advice is to enter your trip details on Google Flights and look for the insights that show you the cheapest time to book your chosen destination and dates!

It’s a good rule of thumb to remember that for Thanksgiving, domestic flight prices are lowest 45 days before departure, while Christmas flights are typically lowest 58 days before departure.

Travelers hoping to book an international trip for the holiday season, shouldn’t wait since our experts at Google said prices probably won’t drop between now and the holidays. In fact, the opposite is more likely true: the search engine said average prices start to rise about 50 days before international flights.
