Flight Tips and Tricks
In this article we disclose our various money saving tips. Remember, the secret to finding cheap tickets is by exploring and checking numerous sites, not just one.
There is no absolute secret which takes just one click to finding the best deal on a flight as the nature of airline inventories and available tickets is so vast, complex and ever changing that even the most experienced of travel agents can end up feeling rather perplexed.
Here are some things to experiment with when looking for cheap flights.
Vary the airports you arrive and depart from.
Check at least three different departure points to the same destination. Check those airports which are in close proximity to your initial departure point and check the prices. Budget airlines often use secondary, less busy airports to fly from and to. Likewise for the destination you are planning to travel too, check secondary airports to the initial destination you plan to go to, for example, if travelling to London , check Luton and Stansted airports as well.
Fly from Major Hubs.
If you are flying to an obscure location it may be worth exploring two separate flights to your destination by flying first to a major international hub and then flying on from there to your obscure location. If, for example you wanted to fly to a tiny South Pacific Island, first look for flights to a major international airport in the South Pacific and then on to your destination from there.
Experiment with booking your flight and hotel together.
Many people say that you can get discounts if you book your flight and hotel together. In my experience this may be the case and sometimes it may not. If you use the best flight comparison and the best hotel comparison sites it has more often than not beat those travel agents that allow you to book hotels and flights together.
Experiment and compare.
I have already listed the best flight comparison sites in the first chapter of this book. I will now list some of the best Hotel comparison sites so you can compare your hotel to a particular destination.
Before you book your hotel I recommend you search the website Tripadvisor.com to get candid traveller reviews on particular hotels.
Cheap Hotels
Hotels.com
Late Rooms
All-Hotels
After you have searched the best sites for flights and hotels separately, try and book them together at Expedia, Lastminute.com or Thomas Cook. See what comes to the least amount of money and settle on that option.
Begin your Search Early.
Have you ever seen a ridiculously low price offered on the TV, internet, or billboard only to find when you look for it, that it has completely disappeared! Well, you may be thinking the agency has lied just to pull in consumers, but that is not the case.
What the airlines tend to do is price a few seats on their plane for the ridiculously low rates they advertise in the media. You need to be extremely quick to get those seats as very few are available in the first place.
The best way to assure yourself a chance at acquiring these seats is to start your search as soon as possible.
60 days before your flight would be an ideal time to begin your search.
Do Not Procrastinate!
Good deals on airline tickets and hotels are purchased notoriously quickly. It is highly likely that if you don't book your deal pretty soon after you have found it, it is likely be taken by someone else.
