3 Ways to Save More Money on Travel
Hey there!
Over the last few days, we've talked about the different ways you can save time and money when planning your next trip while avoiding common mistakes.
In today's email, I'll leave you with 3 final tips to help you save even more money on your next adventure.
Save Money on Flights & More
Keep in mind that most major airlines base their pricing on a number of factors that can greatly influence how much you end up paying for a flight.
This includes season, current demand, weather, major events like festivals, concerts, and other popular seasonal attractions.
This means it’s somewhat easy to predict when airfare prices will rise, as well as when they are likely to be the lowest of the season. So if you're flexible with the time of year you plan to travel, you'll be able to save a lot of money on flights by basing it around the lower-priced seasons.

Check out the Booking.com tool to explore different dates and you’ll see just how much pricing changes from day to day:
Choose Free Attractions
Some of the best days have been spent walking the streets, exploring the area, finding little hidden gems,
cafes and taking in the sights and sounds of the local area.
And best of all, it doesn't cost you a lot of money because you're not paying tour guides to show you around! Which also means you're not forced into dealing with someone else's schedule.
Nearly everywhere you visit there will be opportunities to gain access to certain attractions for free. Keep an eye out for free activities in the area by looking at local community websites, travel calendars or local guides.
Buy a City Pass
Cities like New York offer the “New York City Pass”, which includes access to transportation and sightseeing tours all over the city. Just make sure to read through the list of attractions before you purchase so that you're sure you will take advantage of enough of them o justify the price.
Stay at cheaper places
Renting a flat can save you a lot of money in accommodations while also giving you the full local experience since most of these places will be within rural neighborhoods.
Check out sites like https://booking.com for options.
