✈ Flights — lead time
6-10 weeks
Sweet spot for value. Major fare-sales (US: Black Friday, EU: post-Easter) hit hardest in shoulder months for shoulder travel.
🏨 Lodging — lead time
4-8 weeks
Lots of selection. Look for shoulder-season packages — many hotels add value (free breakfast, spa credit) to fill rooms.
⚠ Chinese New Year disrupts SE Asian flights and hotels for 2-3 weeks — book 5+ months ahead if traveling around the lunar New Year (late Jan to mid-Feb).
