You can use Skyscanner to see the best times of the year to go. Their rainy season is in March so look around that time . Also cliche but you can use hopper and it will alert you when to buy based on the dates you provide.

Try flying out of bigger airports such as NYC and purchase a different ticket for that flight to that city and sometimes you get better deals that way it’s more work but def worth the extra 200 to 300$ that you can save

Yoy can always reach out to a trawelagency and purchase other form of tickets. Like travel miles in a bunch and these can be converted to one or several ordinary tickets. One of my friends whos mother worked at a trawelagency did so for a trip round the globe. Remember all trawel is basically just air miles converted to tickets. Most price comparison sites have the same deal, i know like 20 of them using the same engine and same owner. If you see a ticket rated to x dollars for a certain trip several times, this will be the new normal for you, right? Please stayv curious and try to save some money for your self.

Thank you all for the advise. I will do some more research!!

Many cheap flights this rainy season in the Philippines (if this is your interest). Local carriers do offer seat sales in June-August, then December. Best to travel by summer, from March to May. I'm not sure about other neighboring countries though.

I think the same. Im looking at $1500 for those time frame in June-August for sure
