  • Search for connecting flights
  • Look for free-stopovers

These are only some of the main things to keep an eye out for and to see the full list, you can click the link above. Certain times of the month and week are cheaper than others. Most people are not looking to book flights in the middle of the week, making these the prime days to do so, as well as days after you have made your monthly payment on your credit card. Flying in the middle of the week is also cheaper, as well as taking long layovers, since most want to get to their destination as soon as possible. It can be cheaper to book a flight to where your layover is, and then from your layover to your final destination, instead of booking it all as one flight.
