You're on the right page to grab an awesome deal on your next flight from Boston.

How do I get the best price on my flight from BOS to CHI?

We've been doing this for years, which means getting that great deal on a Chicago flight is easy-peasy. You'll make spending less look so very good with a little know-how.

What is the best day of the week to book a flight?

With the right attitude and flexibility, you can fly for less. Below are the cheapest days to fly:

  • Tuesday and Wednesday—You know how most stores are not crowded midweek? Same thing here. Most people opt to depart at the beginning or end of the week.
  • Thursday and Saturday—Get a head start on that Friday crowd. This also works on your return flight. Shorten your vacay by a day and increase your savings.
  • Monday through Thursday—If you're flying internationally, deals are often available when departing these days.

What's the Saturday night stay rule?

Staying the weekend at your destination, like Chicago, usually means lower airfare since most people fly during this time. Good thing to tell your boss if you have a business trip -- wink-wink.

Can you save while traveling during the off-peak season?

Have good weather, will travel. Summertime is when Europe, Hawaii, and Alaska are at their most popular. During spring, New Orleans, Florida, and California open their arms to tourists. Winter is prime for Mexico and the Caribbean because of its warm weather, as well as ski and snowboard destinations like the Colorado Rockies. Who doesn't love some good fall foliage? The Pacific Northwest, Northern California, and New England are popular this time of the year. If you can plan your trip around these peak seasons, you'll not only save money, but you'll typically avoid the crowds. Win-win in our books.

Is that the lowest price?

Airlines change their rates frequently. If a price you want pops up, then pick it! Unsurprisingly, you're not the only vacation-hungry person longing for a great rate on a flight from Boston to Chicago. You may lose your chance to dial in the time and the flight you wanted.
