Best Days To Buy Plane Tickets Are Saturday And Sunday, Study Finds




So this is good news for everyone!  There’s a new study out that says that the best time to buy airline tickets is on the weekends. According to this article posted recently by Huffington Post (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/05/23/best-days-buy-plane-tickets_n_3328463.html)  if you book travel on a Saturday or Sunday you can save around 5% on the price of your ticket.  Hey, every little bit counts, right!?   

Until next time! 
HAPPY TRAVELS!

Best Days To Buy Plane Tickets Are Saturday And Sunday, Study Finds

While it may be too late to book your Memorial Day weekend travel, it's always good to know how to travel on a smart budget. According to a recent study conducted by a Texas A&M University professor, weekends are the best time to buy airfare as prices drop nearly 5 percent.
Additionally, the study notes that such discounts are greatest for routes that include both business and leisure, but not leisure exclusively. Professor Steven Puller, author of the study, explains, "Take a route that serves both business and leisure travelers. If the business travelers primarily purchase tickets on weekdays, then the typical traveler buying on the weekend is more likely to be a price-sensitive leisure traveler than a business traveler. There is an incentive for the airlines to lower fares on the weekends to try to entice the price-sensitive leisure traveler to buy a ticket."
Although the study only took into consideration round-trip flights with nonstop service excluding those around Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years, it nonetheless gives travelers a heads up on how to save a buck or two.
So as summer is fast approaching, it might not be a bad idea to keep this in mind for those long-awaited weekend travel plans.

Brianna Meighan: Family Travel Expert & Bestselling Author

Hey there!  Welcome to my blog!  To begin with let me tell you a little about myself and my travels. I really LOVE to travel!  From the Great Wall of China to the Kremlin in Moscow, I’ve danced Tango in Argentina, surfed Costa Rica, played Polo in Panama, suntanned next to A-listers in Malibu, deep sea fished in Mexico, swam with sharks in Hawaii, skied Switzerland, sipped Tsaki in Tokyo, walked-about Australia, sat court-side at Wimbledon, bargain shopped in Bali and that’s just to name a few. 

When my son, William, was born, my friends said my traveling ways would end.  So we set-out to prove them all wrong.  After 40 flights with my infant son, 20 of which were international, and ALL before he reached his 1st Birthday, as you can imagine, I became an expert in the area of family travel. 

I wanted to share my tips on how to travel with a baby with other parents so I wrote a book on exactly that: “How to Fly with a Baby: Your Mile-High Guide to Air Travel with an Infant.”  To my utter surprise, it became a #1 Bestseller on Amazon.com and now after over a thousand emails and messages from travel-daunted parents asking for help, I have decided to create a Family Travel Blog that will offer parents with all my travel tips and secrets on how to have a fabulous family trip!

If you have any question, please do not hesitate to contact me.  I look so forward to hearing from you all!
