When looking at Black Friday versus Cyber Monday, Skyscanner helps travelers demystify what's out there and what to be on the lookout for:

  • Which shopping holiday has the best flight deals? The answer is Black Friday.
    • For domestic flights and international flights, Black Friday edges out Cyber Monday for top savings.
    • For domestic flights, Black Friday sees an average of $23 savings.
    • Customers saved $55 on international flights on Black Friday compared to the average cost of the flights the rest of the year.
    • However, on Cyber Monday last year, international flights were $21 cheaper than the average, while domestic flights on Cyber Monday were $20 cheaper.

But even more interesting is what Skyscanner has discovered as it relates to data specific to travelers' origin airports. Skyscanner's historical data shows flight prices fluctuating during the Black Friday and Cyber Monday period depending on origin airport and has compiled this data for some of the top origin airports in the country.
