London (ANI): Looking to go for a holiday and wondering when's the right time to book your tickets to get the best deal? You may now take a breather as a Japanese economist has come up with a formula that can get you the cheapest flight.

Experts have suggested that you are likely to get the best deal on your airline tickets if you book eight weeks in advance, reports the Daily Mail.

They have devised a mindboggling mathematical formula -A =gUG + min(k - g, (1 - g)(1 - r))- that can make your holiday cheaper.

But although the formula from Makoto Watanabe and Marc Moller will be invaluable to holidaymakers, it's not an ultimate answer to our uncertainty.

The formula has been published in the latest edition of The Economic Journal.
