1,970 miles is a serious flight, roughly 4h 22m nonstop, and it is the range where premium economy or a domestic first-class seat can be worth asking about, particularly on midweek departures when upgrade fares drop.
West Coast and Mountain departures spike over summer holidays and the December break; January (after New Year), late April, May, and September are usually the cheapest windows.
Midweek travel almost always beats weekends on price here. If your dates are flexible by a day or two, tell the agent; shifting a Friday departure to Thursday or a Sunday return to Monday is the single most reliable way to cut the fare.
For domestic travel, booking three to eight weeks ahead usually captures the best price. Inside two weeks, fares climb; more than four months out, airlines have not yet released their cheapest inventory.
