When to Book

1–2 Weeks Out

Last-minute

Prices are unpredictable this close. Occasionally airlines release unsold seats at steep discounts, but you're more likely to pay a premium. Only viable if you have flexibility.

6–10 Weeks Out

Sweet spot

This is typically when New York to Auckland fares hit their lowest point. Airlines have a clear picture of demand but seats are still widely available. Set your price alert now to catch the dip.

3–6 Months Out

Peak season

For summer travel and major holidays, booking 3–6 months early locks in reasonable rates before demand spikes. Don't wait for the "perfect" price — set a target and track it.

Pro tip: Flight prices fluctuate hundreds of times per day based on demand, competitor pricing, and remaining seats. Rather than checking manually, set a Wildly price alert and we'll text you the momentJFK→AKL fares drop to your target price.
