In the Okanagan peak tourist season is generally between May and October.

September begins to slow down as everyone goes home to get kids ready for school, but the weather is still beautiful! In fact, some September days can see temperatures in the high 20's Celsius.

And it's a perfect time to visit beautiful Okanagan wineries, attend the Fall Wine Festival or do some fall camping.

You can often find excellent deals for cheap airfare in Canada at that time.

Another busy time of the year in the Okanagan is over Christmas holidays. Many people come here for winter vacation to enjoy skiing and snowboarding at local ski resorts. Christmas holidays, which start around mid December in the Okanagan, are generally busy with air travel.

Here are a some tips for finding the best deals on cheap Canadian air travel and cheap airline travel deals in general:


When is the best time to fly to the Okanagan British Columbia?
It's not only the time of day, but the day of the week. Sunday nights, Monday mornings and Friday afternoons are generally busy with business travelers, so flights are more expensive. Flying mid-week is usually less expensive as demand for week-end travel increases with people trying to get home on time for work Monday.
When searching for air fareis in Canada use flexible dates...
Many airline fare searches give you a three day parameter around your chosen date. This will help you find the best price and the best schedule for your flight.
Avoiding crowded flights...
If you're trying to avoid crowds and the day of the week doesn't matter, Saturdays, Sunday mornings, Monday afternoons and Friday mornings generally can be quieter times for air travel.
Consider visiting the Okanagan during the 'off season'.
Slow periods usually span a few weeks on either end of peak season when the weather is nice but tourism is slow. These times are an ideal time to travel and you'll likely find better deals on hotels and restaurants as well.
Very early or very late flights are often cheaper...
As are flights with layovers or multiple stops. If you don't mind stopovers or traveling on the off hours, there are early morning and late evening flights to Kelowna, and cheap air travel is often the easiest to find if you are flexible this way.
Keeping up to date with price trends and special offers..
If you're planning your trip to the Okanagan during summer, or well in advance, subscribe to newsletters or email alerts about flights to Kelowna. This way you can keep up to date and aware of current or upcoming deals that you may miss otherwise.
