Philadelphia (ILG) to Los Angeles (QLA)

Are you flying to Los Angeles for a much-needed vacation or is it about time for you to have a family reunion? Or maybe you're traveling for work? Hey, anything that gets you away from that desk is a win in our books. You're on the perfect page to get an awesome rate on your next flight from Philadelphia. Whether you label yourself an expert at navigating the friendly skies or only have a few trips under your wing, read on to see how to book a too-good-to-be-true flight.

How can you get a great rate on tickets from ILG to QLA?

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

Which days of the week are cheapest to fly?

It pays to be a weekday warrior. Tuesday and Wednesday typically have the best rates. Next, Thursday and, surprisingly, Saturday. Most like to come back from their trip on Sunday so you can save by leaving a day earlier.

What's the Saturday night stay rule?

If you stay through the weekend, generally that return ticket to ILG can be cheaper since you'll be leaving earlier in the week. All those business travelers have less flexible itineraries, so that means more savings for you. Good thing to tell your boss if you have a business trip -- wink-wink.

Why travel during the off-peak season?

Have good weather, will travel. Summertime is when Europe, Hawaii, and Alaska are at their most popular. Popular Spring Break destinations are New Orleans, California, and Florida. 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 that harvest of autumn colors? 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.

If the price is right, pick it!

Unsurprisingly, you're not the only vacation-hungry person searching for a great rate on a ticket from Philadelphia to Los Angeles. You might miss your chance to dial in the time and the flight you wanted.
