If you are flexible with the days you can travel you can schedule your trip around cheap flights. Start looking around for cheap flights four months beforehand. Sometimes you can still find discount airfare right up to one month before your trip. For last minute cheap flights your best option is to seek out seat sales.

If there are any seat sales you would find them within the last four weeks. When you’re looking for airline tickets at the last minute that is when you try to find seat sales. Any other time seat sales are not your best opportunity for cheap flights, booking early is. It is not always a good idea to wait for last minute seat sales so you can save with discount airfare. Seat sales happen on occasion, not all the time.

The consequences of waiting for seat sales may outweigh any possible savings. First any discount airfare that was available early on is gone. You did not take it when it was there and now you can’t. Second you end up paying more for airfare tomorrow than you would today. Third, and most important, the flight could sell out while you waited for the right moment to buy your tickets to get last minute discount airfare. Now you don’t have tickets.

Another option when searching for discount airfare or seat sales are flights to Birmingham from a city across the border. Sometimes you can find cheap flights with Delta and CO in the US. Just make sure you factor in the cost of traveling across the border when you see cheap flights from there. Unexpected travel costs could erase your savings from finding discount airfare.
