Can staying the weekend get me a cheaper ticket?

Staying the weekend at your destination, like Detroit, usually means lower airfare since most people fly during this time. We are all for that!

What are shoulder seasons?

Shoulder or off-peak seasons are when most vacationers aren't flying to certain locations. So when it is chilly, most people head off to warmer climates like the Caribbean, Mexico, Hawaii, etc., just like the birds (they had it figured out). But in the summer months, you'll find that Europe is where it's at. You can usually save on your ticket when you avoid flying during the peak seasons.

Is that the lowest price?

Airlines change their rates frequently. If a price you love pops up, then pick it. Unsurprisingly, you're not the only flier waiting a good price on a ticket from Des Moines to Detroit. You might miss your chance to get the flight and the schedule you need.
