When is the cheapest time to book flights?
There is no universal Tuesday-at-3pm rule. NomadFare watches the live quote versus a 90-day baseline; the cheapest time to book is whenever that route prints Amazing or an error fare. For leisure Europe from North America, booking 6–10 weeks out in January–March often beats summer-week booking.
Set a free alert on the origin you actually fly. The heartbeat pings when Z-score or percent-off clears the bar, which is more useful than a calendar myth.
