Fly home this holiday season without breaking the bank
Fly on the Holiday Itself
While it may not be the most ideal option for maximizing your holiday time, fares for flights on the holidays themselves can be exceptionally discounted. Most people are home or where they need to be on these days, so jetting off Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, New Year’s Eve (particularly later in the evening, closer to celebration time), or New Year’s Day (when most folks are nursing New Year’s Eve hangovers) can translate to big savings and less hassle due to fewer travelers competing for seats. However, keep in mind that there is some degree of risk here, as delays or cancellations could mean foregoing the planned festivities altogether. As a workaround, some families opt to celebrate on alternative days in order to take advantage of these discounted fares.
