Travel for Cheap!! [tips and links]

Ever wondered how people travel so often ? Or envy the fact people travel so much ?

Today I will share with you a few great sites and a few tips on how you can travel for cheap.

One of the first tip would be to DO YOUR HOMEWORK.
If you are looking around for best air fares, it is best to look at as many resources as you can. What I mean by this is that don't just look at one place. Look at multiple websites or asks your local travel dealer for advices and then compare your best options you are happy with.

One website that is really convenient to compare a few multiple deals at the same time is using www.webjet.com.au/. It allows you to compare the lowest and highest airfares, boarding times and what the air ticket includes - baggage, movie, meal etc.


 
 
The next tip would be to SUBSCRIBE, SUBSCRIBE and SUBSCRIBE.
Many travel companies on their websites allow you to subscribe which you will be sent regular updates or travel deals. If you are a person who regularly checks their email, being a subscriber will allow you to be informed about the latest deals or deals of the day which is a benefit for you as this information becomes available before the people who did not subscribe.
 
 
There are many options to consider when travelling. Such as choosing comfort, service or simply going from destination A to B as cheap as possible. If you plan to take airflights no more than 3-5 hours, it is best to take notable cheap airlines such as Jetstar or AirAsia.
 
AirAsia goes by the slogan "Now Everybody can Fly". If you plan to go Malaysia, or travel from Malaysia to other countries, AirAsia is the best flight to choose to go somewhere nearby. They offer flights from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore from about AUD$20 one way. It is important to check whether air tickets from different sellers include taxes or whatsoever. On the other hand, you can just picture how cheap Air Asia is!!
 

 
Lastly, after planning on what tickets you would like to buy, it is also important to look at hotels to stay out if you don't plan to stay at ur friend's or relative's place. Many travel airline sites such as Jetstar and AirAsia offers you to browse through hotels. Another great thing is that, you can also get package deals. For small and short trips, it is best to consider looking at a package deals that include hotel stay and air tickets.
 
A great website to look at for considering which is the best option of accomodation is http://www.agoda.com/. Agoda  includes ratings, many reviews, pictures of the accomodation and pricing.
 
 
Although looking online is a great way to make choices but it is also important to seek advice from a professional, friends and families to assist you to making your choices. Consider the days you are travelling as different seasons have different pricing. Avoid purchsing during Christmas or New Years as prices may skyrocket high!! If you are lucky, try purchase during off-peak seasons that allow you travel during a set period. Like they always say, for the best outcome always do your homework!
 
Happy travelling y'all!! :)
