What is a red-eye flight?

Red-eye flights are those that leave late at night and arrive to their destination early in the morning. These flights are ideal for people who need to arrive somewhere quickly.

Red-eye flights can travel between many different destinations, but commonly, they stay within the country they depart from. For example, a red-eye flight in the United States may travel from the West Coast to the East Coast or vice versa. The departure and arrival time for these flights vary greatly depending on the airline and the exact flight in question. Users should check with their desired airline for exact flight times.
