SAN ANTONIO -  Have you ever wondered how far in advance you should book airfare to get the best deal?

The answer is 49 days.

Travel experts at Cheapair.com said that applies to domestic flights -- and 81 days if you're flying international.

Cheapair.com analyzed more than 500 million fare searches conducted over a year and compared prices from 210 days out to the day before takeoff.

They found on average, fares started out relatively high, decreased steadily over the next 23 weeks before bottoming out and skyrocketing in the days just before the departure date.
