Exclamation Tip&Tricks low cost tickets

I am sure that you have heard that your best friend get a flight from London to Rome for 1 pound plus taxes.

You check the price for the same route and the same Airline and the price is 200£!

And this is just the way it works!

So how can we find the best (I should say the cheapest!) fare for our flight?

Here some of my suggestions

1- Start to look well in advance for your flight. Prices fluctuate every day.It is good two or three months before the departure.

2- Compare all the airline that have the same route. Not always one company is cheaper that the other. The same is true for bookengines.

3- Check the prices + Taxes. Some Airlines charge you more than other.

4- Be flexible with the Airports. Some Airports have lower taxes than other but they can be hours from the actual destination! (An example is Frankfurt - Han that is 2 hours from the city!). So check how much is to get from the Airport to the actual destination.

5- Be flexible with the days. Usually Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday are cheaper days.

6- Visit often the website to check and recheck the prices!

7- Once you find a VERY GOOD deal book it! If you find a flight for 10 £ would be very difficult to find something much cheaper but easily you can end up paying 50£! So get the YOUR deal when you find it.

I hope that someone will have more to share! Do not esitate to post your suggestion!
