The Other Snowbird State
Florida gets the headlines, but Arizona runs the same twice-a-year tide. From October through December, vehicles flood in from the Midwest, the Plains, and both coasts as winter residents settle into Phoenix, Scottsdale, Mesa, Tucson, and Yuma; from March through May the flow reverses. Pricing follows the tide: southbound and westbound capacity tightens in fall, and carriers heading the other way run light. Book two to four weeks ahead when moving with the crowd, closer to six around the holidays, and take the discount when moving against it.
