If your dates are flexible
These months describe conditions and the seasonal price level, not fares on sale today. Once you have a month, a fare search that shows a whole month at once — a date grid, a price graph or a nearby-airport option — lets you see what your exact dates cost. We do not name a cheapest day, because that depends on the route and when you look.
Guidance only — conditions vary year to year and prices are estimates.
