Cheap-Caribbean-Flights Travel.Shop.Style. That’s pretty much sums up my schedule. Besides needing to have a better relationship with my editorial calendar, I also need to get in the habit of being better organized. Now, with a celebrity client under my wing, travel has become a must! She’s on the West Coast, I live on the East. Thank goodness we both love to travel, however! And we love to do it as cost effective as possible. Many things can determine the price of your travel plans. But the most difficult to negotiate is usually the airfare. But fear not, as I have 7 chic tips to find low airfare. Follow these tips, and never pay full price for your flights again!

Chic Tip #1: Make your reservation early.

Many discount fares require that you make a reservation seven, fourteen or even twenty-one days in advance, depending on the fare. The best international fares often require a reservation 30 days in advance. Making a reservation as soon as you know your travel dates increases your chances of finding a great fare!

Chic Tip #2: Flying on a weekday usually costs less.

Flights departing on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday usually offer the lowest fares. Fares are sometimes (but not always) higher on Monday and Friday than on other weekdays. Saturday flights occasionally have discount fares, but as a rule it’s more expensive to fly on a weekend than a weekday.

Chic Tip #3: Stay over a Saturday night.

Most low fares require that you stay over at least one Saturday night before your return flight. However, some fares may only require you to stay a minimum of 3 or 4 days.

Chic Tip #4: Did I mention you should make your reservation early?

Airlines sell only a limited number of seats at the lowest fares. When those seats sell out, the price goes up!

Chic Tip #5: Consider an airport in the surrounding area.

You may enjoy significant savings if you are willing to fly into nearby airports. For example, when traveling to Los Angeles (LAX), you may want to consider flying into the Burbank (BUR), Orange County (SNA) or Ontario (ONT) airports. Similarly, the cost of a trip to San Francisco (SFO) might be reduced by flying into San Jose (SJC) or Oakland (OAK), while travel to Miami (MIA) may be less expensive if you fly into Ft. Lauderdale (FLL).

Chic Tip #6: Try an earlier or later travel date.

To get the lowest roundtrip fare, the same fare must be available on both the departing and return flights you select. If the fare is sold out on either of these, the price you end up with will be much higher. If possible, consider flying on another date.
