The process of finding a cheap fare is not difficult if you know how. Airlines frequently offer
drastically reduced fares to attract business and you can cash in on Tuesday, Wednesday
and Saturday departures, which are generally cheaper because they are not as popular
as others are with business travelers. Remember, you can also claim a discount for
Saturday night departures after midnight, and may benefit from a 7-day, 14-day or 21-day
advance ticket purchase.

Usually, airlines priced their tickets based on the availability
of seats. When there are few available seats, the fares are
increase, so do your research and book your flight early. It
is usually a wise decision to stick with one carrier for the
entire trip because you could make substantial savings and
minimize the chance of losing your luggage.

Flexibility with your choice of departing airport, and time of
departure could yield tremendous savings with the best possible
fares and you could also realize some good deals.

Discover the world, but if it is at all possible, avoid traveling during what the travel industry
call the high seasons, like holidays and special celebration periods. Airlines, Hotels,
Resorts and Cruise Lines offer huge discounts for travelers who travel in off peak periods.
Fares are usually at their highest during these periods because of the high demand for
seats. However, special credit cardholders, students and seniors are treated differently,
and may be entitled to a discounted ticket.  

If you are Traveling Abroad
Research about the places you intend to visit before you go. Information is available on
the worldwide web or from travel guides. You may have a more relaxing trip if you are
knowledgeable about the place you are visiting.

Here are some TRAVEL suggestions that may work for you:

  • Travel Documents - Ensure that your travel documents, if required, passport and   
    visas for each member of the traveling party, are in order.

  • Research Exchange Rate - Budget your anticipated expenses by estimating your
    daily average cost for food, accommodation, tours/ sightseeing and souvenirs.  

  • Appearance - Shun every appearance that could identify you as a visitor;
    dressing conservatively, being inconspicuous with your maps, cash, credit cards,
    cameras, will go a far way to thwart potential thieves.  

  • Valuables – Leave expensive jewelry at home or in the safe at your hotel. Carry
    only the necessary valuables on your person in a concealed pocket or in a well-
    built bag that closes securely and is fasten with strap across your upper body.  

  • Emergencies – For a few extra pennies on the dollars and peace of mind, it is
    usually a good thing to purchase travel insurance to cover incidentals like missed
    flights, lost baggage, and medical emergencies.

  • Luggage – To claim your luggage, or to identify lost or stolen luggage, it is
    advisable to put your full forwarding address, including your full name, and
    telephone number on the inside as well as on the outside of every piece of
    luggage.
