Overview
If your dates are flexible, the Price Calendar is your best friend. It shows an entire month of pricing for any route, color-coded so you can instantly spot the cheapest days to fly.
How It Works
- Run a search for your route with any date.
- Tap the Calendar icon next to the date picker (or switch to "Calendar View" above results).
- A monthly grid appears. Each day shows the lowest available fare for that route.
- Days are color-coded: green for the cheapest fares, yellow for moderate, red for peak pricing. Gray means no availability data.
- Tap any date to load full results for that day.
Key Details
- The calendar shows the cheapest option across all cabin classes by default. Use the cabin filter to see calendar pricing for a specific class.
- Both cash prices and miles costs are available — toggle between them with the switch above the calendar.
- Price data covers approximately 60 days forward. Dates beyond that show estimates based on historical patterns.
- The calendar loads asynchronously. Dates fill in as pricing data is retrieved, typically within a few seconds.
Tips
- Tuesday and Wednesday departures are often cheapest for domestic flights. The calendar makes this pattern obvious.
- Look for green "islands" — a cheap day surrounded by expensive ones often means a brief fare sale or low-demand window.
- Use the calendar for both outbound and return flights separately to build the cheapest possible round trip with mixed dates.
- Combine with the Buy or Wait indicator — if the calendar shows today as yellow but the indicator says "Wait," prices may drop further.
