offpeak
Outside rush hour
Offpeak describes times when demand for a service is lower than usual, typically resulting in reduced prices or less crowding.
Electricity rates, transit fares, and gym memberships often distinguish between peak and offpeak hours: Offpeak flights are usually cheaper.
The term is sometimes hyphenated (off-peak) or written as two words.
