If you’re thinking ahead to next year’s holiday travel season, either to score a bargain or because this year’s was particularly painful, Cyber Monday is a good time to score airfare deals. Here’s why you should keep an eye on Cyber Monday sales from your favorite airlines.


Hopper, an airfare deals alert service we’ve mentioned before, analyzed their data from last year and found that fare sales spike on Cyber Monday, along with the following Tuesday and Wednesday. December is typically a low-sales time of year for airfare since most people have already purchased their holiday flights, so many airlines use Cyber Monday as a chance to boost sales for vacations you may take in January, February, and next spring. Check your favorite airline and travel booking sites or create a price alert so you can snag a deal this Monday on next year’s travel.
