After The Bell: Airfares Just Got A Whole Lot Cheaper
(CBS) -- Kids are heading back to school and that means the cheapest time of the year to fly starts now.
The so-called 'Fall Deal Zone' started this week and generally extends through late October. Flying during this time can save passengers 20 percent or more, though airfares will vary based on itinerary.
"If you can get away, it is definitely the time you should be traveling, because the prices are some of the cheapest that you're going to see all year" says Rick Seaney, CEO of FareCompare.com. He also noted that the cheapest days to fly are Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday.
