AMAZING PRICES FOR FLIGHTS AND HOLIDAYS
Of all the general ‘cheaper holiday’ sites I looked at, the one that I liked the look of most was cheaperholidays.com I might be wrong but it seemed to have better bargains than most.
Another brilliant site you should visit for top holiday deals that are updated daily is http://www.travelzoo.co.uk
Also check for special deals at http://www.flightcentre.co.uk - It would seem that 3 or 4 months before flying would be a good time to start looking.
And finally, if you are looking to book a specific flight rather than just any old holiday, here are some brilliant tips on how to get the cheapest tickets possible:
* It is better to start looking for bargain fares well ahead of when you want to fly rather than hoping for a last minute deal. Last minute deals are OK if you’re flexible about where and when you go. Start looking one month ahead at the latest.
* Look for times that are less convenient and you’ll pay a lot less. Don’t book flights between 9am and 5pm unless you’re sure you’re not paying over the odds for these times.
* Tuesday and Wednesday are the cheapest days of the week to fly. You’ll also save hundreds off the price of a flight if you’re prepared to fly just after Christmas day or on New Year’s Eve.
* Let the airline know if you’re over 65 or travelling as a family. Just mentioning these two facts can often get you a discount. There are sometimes also discounts for members of the clergy and people traveling to a funeral.
* I don’t actually know if this is true but I’ve been told that the best time to search for your flight is around 6 PM on Tuesdays (adapt time to local time if looking for international airlines). Apparently this is the time when airlines update their systems with new fares. There are sometimes even mistakes that you can jump on!
* Sometimes it’s cheaper to book two single flights from different airlines.
And finally…
