I’ve been looking on these discount sites for some time and have noticed that the cost of airfare seems lower to book during the week and more expensive if I were to book during the weekend. Anybody else notice this? Anybody have any idea why?

They do so as more people prefer to fly on holidays especially those who have jobs ( to save a day from their holiday schedule ) and thus the demand increases causing the prices to be higher.

i think it has to do with the demand if you ever notice a lot of hotels rate and car rentals increase in price on the weekends or around the holidays. thats ridiculous
