What are the cheapest days to fly?
Here’s an insider tip: Monday is typically the cheapest day to fly! Looking at flight demand on Wotif in 2021, we found that flights departing on a Monday generally had the lowest average price, closely followed by flights on a Saturday.

Guess what? It turns out that early in the week is the best time to score the cheapest plane tickets.

Booking your plane ticket on the weekend also seems to score pretty good deals.
