Is there a day of the week that's best for checking airline prices?
Do they tend to have days that have lower prices (and others with higher
prices)? Note, I'm not looking for days of the week to fly (the cruise isn't changing days), but what day of the week they might lower prices slightly.

The airlines have algorithms they use to issue what they believe is the right price at the right time ... Different places like farecompare, farecast, smartertravel, etc. have their ideas ... but what did work for me once was looking Tuesday after 12 ... sign up with these places that do the tracking for you ... you'll get email alerts when prices drop ...

Tuesdays used to be "the best" time, but with inventory management, the prices can change in about 30 seconds. With American, if you pull up a price on their website, you have 10 minutes to book it at that price, assuming you don't go off and price another set of flights. After that, no guarantees. -- - dillon I am not invalid Hi, I'm Michael Phelps and Olympic Gold isn't the only Gold I'm thinking of. Hi, I'm Michael Phelps and when I'm on Maui, Wowwie.
