Flight Purchasing Tips Needed

[jsteil]

So I'm getting ready to purchase my flight for my 2nd reach in April 2014. I was wondering if anyone had any tips on saving money on purchasing American Airline tickets whether it be promo codes or a specific date or week(s) prior to April I should purchase my ticket? Any tips?

I bought my ticket last year in November for $615 for last April's reach. I'm traveling from the Midwest USA.

I just bought tickets for the last week of March 2014 with American Airlines for $480 round trip from Kansas City to MBJ. It's about the cheapest I've seen a flight to MBJ in about 2 years. My wife said book it as soon as I said $480. I find flights are cheaper if you arrive/depart on a Wednesday. I check prices almost daily and also have some sites like kayak that email me. One thing I noticed is Kayak and other websites will load a cookie on your computer and if you keep checking the price will go up or stay the same. If you delete your cookies you will get better results.

$480 is exactly what I'm looking for! What time of day was it that you found that deal?

Saturday evening between 6pm and midnight. I purchased tickets from March 19th-26th off kayak.com and it took me to Americans website.
