When you plan an international trip, one of the biggest expenses is airfare. But did you know that the day you choose to fly can significantly impact the price of your ticket?

Yes, that’s right—changing your flight by just a day or two could save you ₹5,000 to ₹10,000, especially if you’re flying from Amritsar to top destinations like Canada, Dubai, or Melbourne.

In this blog, we’ll explore:

• The cheapest days to fly from Amritsar

• Why mid-week bookings save you more

• Tools and tips to spot these low-fare days

• Real-life examples from Ambay Holidays Pvt. Ltd.

📆 Why Day of the Week Matters

Airline fares fluctuate based on supply, demand, and booking patterns. Airlines often release deals at specific times in the week to fill under-booked flights.

✅ General Rule: Tuesdays and Wednesdays are Cheapest

Here’s why:

• Lower demand: Fewer people fly mid-week due to work or school.

• Airline releases: Many airlines release deals on Monday evenings or Tuesday mornings, which reflect across platforms by mid-week.

• Business travel: High-paying corporate flyers travel Monday/Friday—leaving Tuesday and Wednesday with better inventory for budget travelers.

✈️ Cheapest Times to Fly in a Day

Apart from the day of the week, time of departure also plays a role in pricing.

• Early Morning Flights (5–8 AM): Often cheapest due to fewer travelers

• Late Night (Red-Eye) Flights: Lower demand, hence lower prices

• Mid-Day Flights (1–4 PM): Most expensive due to business travel overlap

💡 Pro Tip from Ambay Holidays: “Try booking flights between Tuesday midnight to Thursday morning for best rates. We consistently see ₹3,000–₹5,000 difference.”

🗓️ When NOT to Fly

Avoid these time windows if you’re price-sensitive:

• Friday to Sunday Departures – High leisure demand

• Holidays or Long Weekends – Skyrocketing prices

• First week of April or September – Student travel peaks

• Festival Season (Diwali, Christmas, Eid) – Very high fares

Instead, aim for:

• Second or third week of a month

• Off-peak months like February, May, and September

• Return after major holidays when demand drops

💻 How to Spot the Cheapest Days Online

Here are some tools you can use—but we’ll also tell you why calling us is better.

✅ Tools to Try:

1. Google Flights – See price trends by day in a calendar view

2. Skyscanner’s “Cheapest Month” Feature – Compare a full month

3. Kayak’s Price Forecast – Predict if fares will rise or drop

But remember: these tools show base prices, not final ticket costs (with baggage, meals, cancellation, etc.).
