No one can deny that the world has changed a lot in
the last century. Thanks to the invention of high-speed aircraft and trains,
today's world has become very open to travel. One day, we can travel to the
other side of the world without using the savings of our entire lives. We also
have many options available to help us plan our flights, and choice can help
you wisely save time and money.
1. Travel Agents. Many people have a misconception that using a
travel agent involves paying a fee. Bullshit. In fact, most travel agencies
receive commissions from suppliers (airlines, hotels, travel agencies); they
pay the fees, not you. The travel agent can access offers that are often not
available elsewhere. It can help eliminate the planning headache, allowing you
to sit back and relax while tracking logistics. Another advantage is that
travel agents often include travel insurance in their packages, to make sure
you get what you paid for.
2. Internet. With the widespread use of the Internet, travel
prices have dropped dramatically. With travel sites like Orbitz, Expedia, and
Travelocity, shoppers can find ever lower prices for flights, hotels, and
package offers. Low? Finding the best travel offers often requires a lot of
time and patience when comparing prices with other sites and booking directly.
Another disadvantage is that you can not always find availability at these low
rates, but it is good planning from home.↚
3. Travel Guides. Proven and true, travel guides are the best
traveler's friend. Looking for an experienced travel book and gathering
evidence based on their own experiences, who is the best at advising anyone who
has been there? Based on your preferred level of luxury, you will surely find a
guide that meets your needs. Best of all, travel guides are often available in
your local library for free!
4. Direct booking. Sometimes, travel companies offer special
offers to customers who book directly. This is especially true in the case of
cruise companies and cruises that advertise travel deals for ordinary
customers. You can often find rates as low as half the price (or less) if you
book at the last minute. If you have flexibility and design, this may be the
way to go.
In any circumstance, travel opens our eyes to the worlds where our
ancestors did not dream of visiting. Whether you travel around the world or
just a city, careful planning and an open mind will allow you to live a unique
experience in life. Happy trips!
