4. Be flexible with your departure times |

Just a couple of hours can mean the difference of hundreds of dollars in the price of an airline ticket. Unlike the days of the week, though, pinpointing a time in the day when fares are the cheapest is impossible. Because the demand for various times of the day differs with the route of the flight, day of the week, and other factors, sometimes the cheap fares can be found in the middle of the day, while other times early morning or late evening departure times yield the cheapest airline tickets. With most travel websites, though, you needn't worry about searching for fares at all times of the day, and here's why: When you perform a search for flights, you have the option of specifying a preferred departure time. Don't. Instead, always make sure you select the "anytime" option; this way, the site will search all of the fares on that given day to find the cheapest fares available.
