On Another Note: Turkey Fares

A press release from Cheapflights.com has these tips for snagging last-minute bargains for Thanksgiving travel, on fares that are released just before Thanksgiving and that require flying actually on Thanksgiving Day.

Your chances are best if you search by destination, and not by date. (Most farefinders force you to enter dates, before you search for fares; Cheapflights does not.) Keep checking back to find new fares, as they're released; but when you do find a good fare, book it immediately, as there's high demand for last-minute "Turkey Fares". Finally, Be Flexible (always a good thing, when hunting fares.)
