    Actually works! Before this I tried everything and the cheapest flight I could get was with frontier for 1100 for 2 adults and 2 children. Now I’m on delta with 2 adults and 2 children for 800$$$. Thank you! Saved us from a miserably uncomfortable and expensive flight.

      Hi Jessah! I was in the military for 4 years and saved up every penny I could so I could travel full time for 2 years. Now I settled down in Colorado and again, save every penny I can so I can go on small weekend trips. I prioritize travel over a lot ofphysical items, like new clothes. It's hard but definitely worth it!

    Also a thing worth nothing when it comes to cheap airline fares is competition on the particular market segment your located. For example: a ticket from JFK New York to Kingston jamaica might cost you anywhere from $500 - 700 depending on season and also airline. For that same price I could fly out of one of the major east cost hubs and pay less than that to fly 14 hours to Asia. So market saturation is always the plus to get cheap flight.
    Also help to have a good privacy browser to search around.

    Hey so do you have a tip about driving to the popular airport and parking there so you could have the cheaper flight? The closest one to me is about 2 hours away. I think you could park at an airport but it cost money obviously to leave it there a week or more. Have you heard of anything on a budget that could help in that type of situation? Maybe parking somewhere else, at a public area? Maybe just getting a bus ride instead of driving yourself? Idk LOL

    • @AllysonSpieler
      @AllysonSpieler  3 роки тому +3

      Great question! Usually what I do is one of these 3 things - 1.) I find a friend or family member to drop me off at the airport and pay them gas money. 2.) I use public transportation. such as a train or a bus. and sometimes those long term parking lots can be much cheaper. or I uber to the train or bus station and then hop on 3.) I use the website cheapairportparking.org to compare prices and find the cheapest option.
      It's hard to find the cheapest option and definitely takes some digging. That's why my go to option is number 1. But it hasn't always been possible for us. And the other 2 have worked for us :) Hope that helps!

    I found Turkish Air from SFO-TLV-SFO r/t for $692 r/t for towards the end of this month til the end of November. I went ahead and paid for seat assignments at the front of the plane. UA was the same and Turkish offers better service despite a stop at IST vs. the nonstop. Also Turkish has the 3--3-3 777W . They have the better meals and I get to use the Priority Pass lounge at IST and AMEX Lounge at SFO. What could be better?

    • @AllysonSpieler
      @AllysonSpieler  3 роки тому +1

      Sometimes it can be. But it's a gamble :( they could also skyrocket even more! This summer, it seems as though tickets are getting more and more expensive because airlines are trying to make up for the loss of this past year. Try looking at all possibilities and try different airports. Sometimes I've found that finding a cheap airport to fly into, like Chicago to Dallas will be cheap and then search for your final destination from Dallas and purchase two separate tickets. I dont know why, but it can be cheaper.

    Hi Allyson, So to book one ways for cheaper price. Can I go ahead and do that for each flight before I ever leave town.? How good of a chance would I have to get them all reserved in an itinerary of to and from for the entire trip. Example: Indy to Tampa, Tampa to Caymans, then back again same route. Thanks!

    Do you pick the cheapest flight without carrying too much about the airline status? I want to fly to France and I found a flight for $400 to $600 but the airline's reviews are not as great. I want to know how you pick your airlines.

    • @AllysonSpieler
