Pro tip: booking your flight on a Tuesday isn't just a myth

I was flying from Denver to Orlando a few weeks back and checked prices every day for a week straight. On Tuesday morning at around 6 AM, the fare dropped from $280 to $210 for the same Delta flight. I snagged it instantly and saved $70. Has anyone else noticed specific times or days that actually work better for cheap flights?

Ugh, that's such a good question because it's hard to tell a real pattern from a random glitch (especially when you're just one person tracking their own flights). It sounds like you really did your homework though, checking every single day like that, so I totally get the frustration of not knowing for sure. But hey, even if it was a one-time thing, that $70 savings is still a huge win in my book. It's honestly just a bummer that we have to play these guessing games with airlines in the first place.

Did you check if that Tuesday drop was actually a glitch or a real pattern? How do you even verify something like that without spending a month staring at fares?
