Here's some advice from a website that is selling cheaper flights:

“When booking your holiday flights, try to fly nonstop out of/into a popular airline hub if possible. You will find more competition among airlines and thus better pricing. More importantly, by flying direct you will not get stuck at one of your connections with your tired and cranky family, nor will your luggage with all of the Christmas presents end up at the wrong airport,” said Barbara Messing, Vice President of Travel-Ticker.com.

She continues: “If you do have to make a connection, try flying on the off-peak days of the holiday. But no matter when you’re planning to fly, be sure to book now if you see a great deal as several airlines are offering special holiday fares. For example, right now on Travel-Ticker.com we’re featuring these types of special, limited time offers, like domestic holiday flights from $39.”

Travel-Ticker.com lets consumers sign up for its flight flash sale alerts and also has a dedicated page for Thanksgiving trip deals to "gobble up."

The Thanksgiving page can be accessed from the www.Travel-Ticker.com homepage or the following URL: http://www.travel-ticker.com/Theme/Thanksgiving_Trips. As you can see there’s a nice selection of trips nationwide, from Vegas to San Francisco (city and wine country), Orlando, DC, San Diego, NYC, Minneapolis, Philadelphia, etc.
