Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday are typically the least expensive days to fly. Flexible travelers typically score the best last-minute travel deals.

The Travel Channel reports that traveling on a holiday–for example, New Year’s Eve or New Year’s Day–often results in last-minute travel deals of up to 50 percent off the price of flights.

Flying in or out of an alternative airport can often result in big savings on airfare. Again, flexibility is key when scoring last-minute travel deals. If you’re willing to drive a few extra miles to catch that fly, those miles can translate into big savings. Be sure to check multiple airports when looking for flights.

Consumer Reports writes, “Check prices (on flights) at 3 p.m. on a Tuesday; that’s when the greatest number of cheap seats might be available. But bargains can appear at any time, so keep searching and set up alerts that will send you an e-mail or text message when prices on your route drop.”
