The best time to book flights AND The best airline credit cards

My advice for the best fares: 

• Travel during slower periods, such as January or May.
• Fares usually have the most adjustment 90-120 days prior to traveling. This can be good or bad, either raising or lowering flight costs.
• Some people say that certain days of the week are better for finding low fares. This is a myth. Airfares are constantly adjusting, and you can get low fares any day of the week, and any time of day.
• It IS true that flying on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Saturdays are often the least expensive days to travel.
• Book as early as you possibly can for holiday travel. You’re not the only one who wants to get away at those times!
• Airlines often include price hikes 21, 7, and 3 days prior to travel. Waiting to book till the last minute usually isn’t the best advice.
• For international travel, the sweet spot is often six to nine months prior to travel. If you’re traveling close to a holiday (or in Europe during the summer), nine to eleven months usually has the best rates, before everyone else has thought about it.
