How To Find Cheap Flights To Travel On A Budget

With the warm weather here and #EuroSummer photos taking over our Instagram feeds summer travel is definitely on our brains…buttttt so is saving money. The good news: it is possible to not blow your entire savings on travel–that is if you know how to book smart.

So let’s start with the flight! Here’s our guide to actually finding the best cheap flights when traveling:

What website actually has the cheapest flights?

Many different websites offer great options for cheap flights, so your best bet is to look at few different sites and compare the prices. Some of the best websites to peruse include:

  • Google Flights
  • Kayak
  • Expedia
  • Skyscanner
  • Kiwi
  • BookWithMatrix
  • momondo

What are the cheapest days to fly?

When booking a flight you may be wondering what days do flights get cheaper? Well, according to Skyscanner flights are typically cheaper midweek.

That means you’ll want to look for flights that take off or land Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays. Flights that take off and land on weekends, Mondays, or Fridays are generally more expensive.

Flight expert Scott Keyes, on the other hand, says that the cheapest days to fly are Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays.

What’s the cheapest month to fly?

January is typically the cheapest month to fly, with February a close second.

What are the cheapest times to fly?

Red-eye flights (flights that depart late at night and arrive early in the morning) are usually cheaper than flights that depart during the day. This is because airlines offer lower prices to encourage more travelers to fly during off-hours to reduce daytime demand.

What are the most popular months to fly?

The most popular times to fly are typically summer months (June, July, and August) and major holidays such as Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s.

What’s the cheapest day of the week to book a flight?

Believe it or not even the day you actually book your flight can affect how much money you’ll have to cough up. And while it’s definitely not a fixed formula the cheapest day of the week to book a flight is typically Tuesday. A Tuesday afternoon at 3 pm is even better!

Why, you ask? Well, many airlines release their airfare sales on Monday nights or Tuesday mornings, and by mid-afternoon other airlines have caught on and matched those sale prices. Therefore, you’ll have the widest range of deals to choose from on Tuesday afternoons.

Do flight prices go down closer to the date of departure?

Some people think it’s cheaper to buy flight tickets last minute, others want to book their flight as early as possible to avoid the risk of the plane filling up.

According to FareCompare, those looking to book a cheap flight should follow these parameters:

  • US Tickets – Book your flight between 3 months and 30 days before departure
  • International Tickets – Book your flight between five and a half months and one and a half months before departure

Are non-stop flights more expensive?

While non-stop flights are definitely more convenient, connecting flights typically offer better deals–sometimes with savings of up to 50%!

Xeno’s Pizza is launching an inflation-friendly pizza special

Xeno’s Pizza is launching an inflation-friendly pizza special

Yes, thanks to inflation, everything is more expensive these days: your coffee, your rent, your cocktails, your cab rides, everything. (Manhattan is the most expensive place to live in the U.S., after all.) But thanks to a new happy hour special from Xeno’s Pizza in midtown (163 East 52nd Street), you can still get a hot, high-quality slice of ‘za for less than three bucks in New York City. 

RECOMMENDED: The 29 best pizza places in NYC include simple slices and elaborate whole pies

Launching on Monday, July 8, the gourmet pizza spot will introduce a new summertime “MetroCard Special” to provide an upscale alternative to the classic dollar slice. During happy hour on Mondays through Fridays from 4pm to 6pm, you can get some of the city’s best slices for only $2.90 a pop, or the price of a metro fare. (Until, you know, the transportation powers that be crank the already pricey subway fare up even more.) 

That means, for less than three singles, you can indulge in slices that combine “artisan style with boundary-pushing creations while keeping pizza classically New York,” per the restaurant. On the menu, you’ll find delicious stuff like the “Hot Voddy” (made with house-made vodka sauce, freshly pulled mozzarella and fragrant basil), “The Bugs Bunny” (topped with shiitake mushrooms, peppers, onions and balsamic glaze), a classic and crisp “The Xeno” (San Marzano tomato sauce and shredded mozzarella, which was given a “highly rated 7.7” by notable pizza lover Dave Portnoy) and the recently added “The Hot Ice,” which ups a plain slice with creamy stracciatella and our spicy Calabrian chili sauce.

Take a gander at that latter beaut below and add Xeno’s to your post-work happy hour plans. Because if there’s anything we love more than great pizza, it’s cheap great pizza.

Machining Process For High L/D Ratio Titanium Alloy Thin-Walled Parts

The #1 source in the world for all things Harlem.

In mechanical processing, the components which are known as thin-walled parts have wall thickness less than 1mm; while slender shaft parts are those that have a length-to-diameter ratio greater than 10. Both thin-walled and slender shaft parts lack rigidity, hence making them difficult to hold in place during turning machining; consequently they easily deform when…

A Great White Shark Nursery Is Home To Hundreds In These NY Waters

This interactive shark tracker may come in handy more often than we’d like it to at the beach this summer as National Geographic has revealed that more than just beachgoers are swimming offshore the Long Island coast.

Just offshore in the New York Bight, the Atlantic Continental Shelf waters off Long Island, NY, and NJ, hundreds (yes, hundreds) of baby great white sharks live together in “what researchers now believe to be the North Atlantic’s primary—and probably only—great white shark nursery.”

And while this isn’t exactly new news–shark scientists have had an inkling this shark nursery has been here since the mid-1980s–its existence has only recently been confirmed.

Megan Winton, a research scientist with the Atlantic White Shark Conservancy, stated:

As far as we know, the Long Island shark nursery is where all baby [great white] sharks in the North Atlantic spend their first year of life. And it just happens to be near one of the most densely populated areas of the U.S. coastline.

As part of an ongoing research project, Winton and her colleagues attached a camera tag to a young female shark (named Liberty as an homage to the NYC landmark) for the first time ever. Not only does the camera track the shark’s movements, it also provides vital insight critical to protecting them.

You can watch Winton and her team catch Liberty and attach the camera tag here:


Winton stated, “We know virtually nothing about baby white sharks…It’s really uncharted territory as far as white shark science goes.”

One thing they do know though–”while no one has ever seen a white shark give birth, the fact that they show up every year in May and June in such numbers suggested they’re born nearby,” according to Tobey Curtis, a fishery management specialist with NOAA’s Office of Sustainable Fisheries.

So, naturally, it’s important to study them, especially since baby sharks spend almost all their time within the nursery, according to research. In fact, National Geographic writes that “more than 90% of them remain within 12 miles of the shore, swimming parallel to the eastern Long Island coastline.”

So, where is the nursery exactly, and what are these baby great white sharks doing there?

The nursery–which can produce up to 200 great white sharks per year–is located in a triangular area between Montauk Point, Long Island, Cape May, NJ, and NYC.

As for what the sharks are doing, they’re learning how to feed, navigate, and evade predators.

At the end of the day, Curtis states that Long Island’s great white shark nursery should be looked at as a “conservation success story.” The North Atlantic population of great whites was once nearing extinction due to overfishing, though it’s grown in recent years due to the resurgence of the gray seal, i.e. their prey.

The population is now estimated at around 800.

Curtis stated:

It’s amazing that the ocean is healthy enough to have these abundant fish populations, including abundant shark populations, right outside New York City and Long Island. Even with all those millions of people near the shore and the impact on the waterways, the ecosystem is healthier now than it’s been in a long time.

Oh, and by the way, yes, these are the same waters that the world’s second largest animal are also living in.
