You are if you do this when traveling: You always use a carry-on to avoid the checked-bag fee. You pack a lunch from home so you dont pay for airline meals. True “cheapskates” also fly on the three cheapest days of the week (Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Saturdays). For U. S. domestic travel, everyone wants to fly Fridays and Sundays and those are usually the most expensive days to fly. The fares for Los Angeles-to-New York flights in September: Friday & Sunday: $ 365 Tuesday & Wednesday: $ 288 The fares for Houston-to-New York flights in September: Friday & Sunday: $ 302 Tuesday & Wednesday: $ 226 For transatlantic flights, the difference can be more startling and the rules a little looser. Boston-to-Dublin fares from United Airlines: Friday & Sunday: $ 581 Tuesday & Wednesday: $ 457 The fares for Washington-to-London flights in a week: Friday & Sunday: $ 896 Tuesday & Wednesday: $ 732 Its time for some Saturday fares now. This example features Chicago-to-Atlanta routes. Friday & Sunday: $ 207 Saturday: $ 89 There were cheaper fares for this trip,but only if the Sunday flight departed at 5 am or earlier.
