Also i've had good luck with tuesday afternoons (apparently the lowest prices of the week for booking flights) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-far-in-advance-do-you-book-flightshotels#post-1545242 Fri, 04 Apr 2014 06:12:30 +0000 bushelandapeck 1545242@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually 4-6 weeks in advance. Sometimes less if we are being indecisive ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-far-in-advance-do-you-book-flightshotels#post-1545229 Fri, 04 Apr 2014 05:58:04 +0000 BSB 1545229@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For flights, as soon as we confirm our dates. So 2-3 months before.</p> <p>For hotels, we like to wait til the last minute. I don't want to chance being wrong and having to cancel our reservation. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-far-in-advance-do-you-book-flightshotels#post-1539144 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 09:05:45 +0000 Alivoo01 1539144@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually a month in advance. Hotels - I can go up to two weeks before. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-far-in-advance-do-you-book-flightshotels#post-1539127 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 08:59:14 +0000 looch 1539127@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Depends if our travel arrangements can be moved...if we know far enough in advance when we'd like to go, we play around with dates to see what the best deals are. We're also really flexible with our departure airport, but not as much with our destination airport.</p> <p>For hotels, we book as soon as we see a deal, IF they have a cancellation policy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-far-in-advance-do-you-book-flightshotels#post-1539064 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 08:35:55 +0000 LuLu Mom 1539064@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just read on Pinterest that 6 weeks before on the Tuesday is the cheapest. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-far-in-advance-do-you-book-flightshotels#post-1539058 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 08:33:09 +0000 lawbee11 1539058@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've read 4-6 weeks out is best, but I've also read 54 days. I'd start stalking prices now, but I'm guessing for the end of June it'll be another month before they're at their cheapest. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-far-in-advance-do-you-book-flightshotels#post-1539052 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 08:31:38 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1539052@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just booked tickets for July last week- and that's a pretty normal amount of time for me. Tickets were cheaper about three weeks ago, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-far-in-advance-do-you-book-flightshotels#post-1538946 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 07:50:56 +0000 snowjewelz 1538946@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LindsayInNY: You're really on top of it! We have a tentative trip in July that we didn't even start looking at yet! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-far-in-advance-do-you-book-flightshotels#post-1538527 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 21:39:09 +0000 LindsayInNY 1538527@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Depends. We watch prices before booking. In February or March we booked for the middle of June and beginning of July. I'm currently stalking prices for Thanksgiving if we're not pregnant soon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-far-in-advance-do-you-book-flightshotels#post-1538454 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 20:59:10 +0000 chopsuey 1538454@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaMoose: @snowjewelz: omg that's so crazy. lol. wonder how they came up with that number! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-far-in-advance-do-you-book-flightshotels#post-1538451 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 20:57:14 +0000 snowjewelz 1538451@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It depends. I just went on vacation and I booked that 6 months back! I heard the magic # is about 54 days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-far-in-advance-do-you-book-flightshotels#post-1538444 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 20:54:26 +0000 MamaMoose 1538444@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I read an article recently that 54 days prior to departure is the cheapest date to book flights! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-far-in-advance-do-you-book-flightshotels#post-1538439 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 20:51:27 +0000 chopsuey 1538439@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When we travel as a family, we try to book a couple months in advance. </p> <p>Headed to CA at the end of June. wOot! :) </p>
