Scoring a great flight deal isn't just about luck

Airlines constantly adjust prices based on demand, timing, and even the day of the week. A little flexibility and some smart planning can mean big savings. Before you book, try these proven strategies.

Fly on the cheap days: Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Saturdays are usually the cheapest. Red-eyes and early morning flights also cost less and are less likely to be delayed or canceled.

Check for 24-hour price drops: Booked a flight? Some airlines let you cancel within 24 hours for free. If you find a lower price, cancel and rebook. Easy savings.

Or use Google's guarantee. Certain flights are eligible. After you book a trip, Google monitors the price until the first flight in your itinerary departs. If the price drops, the company will make up the difference. Select a badged flight from Departing flights (the badge is a colorful shield surrounding a dollar sign). Make sure you pick a badged itinerary through checkout.

Let's upgrade your trip

OK, the flight is booked and your bags are packed. Let's make your travel even better, easier and less stressful.
