Rossen Reports: Best days to fly for fall travel deals
New numbers from the travel site Hopper show how much a weekend getaway will cost as we approach fall.
Weekend flights for September starting after Labor Day cost about $270 per round-trip domestic ticket. Prices rise in October, peaking around the long weekend of Columbus Day at $341. They drop again to $278 around Halloween.
You can save even more by adjusting the days you fly. Instead of flying Thursday through Sunday, try Saturday through Tuesday. Hopper says that will save you 17 percent on flights.
