Fare seasonality

When this route gets cheap.

Fares bottom out in November around $587 and peak in March near $678, 16% dearer, across the 5 months we track. The cheapest itinerary we are tracking makes one stop and takes about 12 hours outbound, on a 6-night trip — ticketed under American, which on a connecting fare need not operate every leg. At $587 for 7,802 km each way, that works out to about $38 per 1,000 km flown. That is below the $44 per 1,000 km typical of long-haul fares here. Across the 23 departure cities we track at a similar distance from Rio de Janeiro, this fare ranks 3rd — 21% above the $487 from New York. That puts it in the cheaper half of the 21 routes of similar length we watch out of Boston, where the middle fare is $728. The best time to be in Rio de Janeiro: Apr–Jun · Sep–Oct.

Good to know

BOS → RIO, answered.

Is $587 a good price for Boston to Rio de Janeiro?

Only slightly. The seasonal median is around $670 round-trip and this fare is 12% under it. We do not call a drop notable until 20%, so this is an ordinary price for the route rather than a reason to hurry.

What is the cheapest month to fly from Boston to Rio de Janeiro?

Across 5 months of cached-fare history, Nov comes out cheapest on this route. The best months to actually be in Rio de Janeiro are Apr–Jun · Sep–Oct — when those overlap, that's your window.

How far in advance should I book BOS → Rio de Janeiro?

We do not publish a number for this, because we cannot measure it yet. Answering it honestly means watching the same departure date on this route over many weeks as it approaches, and that archive is still filling up — so any "book N days ahead" figure here would be borrowed from somewhere else rather than measured. What we can measure is which month is cheap: across 5 months of cached fares, Nov comes out lowest on this route. Our guide Why flight prices change covers what does move a fare.

Are there nonstop flights from Boston to Rio de Janeiro?

The current cheapest fares involve a connection, ticketed under American. We hold no nonstop fare on this route right now, which does not mean none flies — search your exact dates to see what does.

Are these prices guaranteed?

No — these are cached fares found on real searches (this one on 17 October). Airlines reprice constantly, so the booking search re-checks the live price before you pay. Fresher finds are far more likely to still be available.
