If you've booked flights through Google Flights, you're probably familiar with the low, typical, or high rating that lets you know what kind of deal you're getting.

But a new feature will allow you to see the range of dates when you can book tickets at the lowest prices, ZDNet reports.

From now on, Google Flights has a price history feature that allows users to view a graph of ticket prices over the past months. Now, if prices are typical or high, Google suggests dates when prices will be cheap. If the current price is cheap, Google estimates how long users will be able to book their flight.

Google's new estimated dates are not available for all flights - only those with enough data to make a good guess.
