Domestic airfare is currently averaging $383, which is the highest we’ve seen since Hopper started tracking flight prices in 2013. Our travel experts recommend you book by the first week in May to get the best deal on summer travel, after that prices will only go up. But don’t worry, there are still great deals to be found, especially during Hopper’s upcoming Cinco de Mayo (5/5) sale. 

Kicking off on May 5th, travel app Hopper is hosting its Cinco de Mayo (5/5) Sale offering rotating domestic and international deals everyday. The 4-day event will feature new discounts each day, with savings ranging from $55 to $275 in the app. 

From international destinations like Los Cabos, Cancun, Singapore, Bali and Lima, to domestic trips like NYC, Reno, Nashville, Los Angeles and Miami, users can expect to find deals to their dream summer vacation spots. Check out the app on 5/5 to see the full list of deals!
