Cheapest Ways to Fly

Throughout my traveling experiences I have learned the key tips to purchasing airline tickets. As I prepare for Spring Break 2015 I have been searching for the cheapest ways to fly myself.

1. Always purchase during the week

The best day to look for airline tickets on any cite is Tuesday. Most companies release their pricing and information on Mondays so the best deals of competing airlines come out on Tuesday.

2. Always clear your online cookies
The more you look up a certain airline cite the higher prices may raise. It is amazing how many things our computer tracks with todays technology. The prices may rise in order to trick you into buying your ticket faster.

3. Beware of cancellation policies.
Websites like Orbitz and Priceline are great if you make sure you understand what you are doing. I have only used Orbitz twice, but was very pleased. A lot of the tickets you repurchase on their sites are refundable within a certain amount of days. Make sure you review the policy of all domestic airlines because not all of them will give you a credit or refund you if you have an emergency or change of plan.

4. Mix and Match
This is something I found out myself. Sometimes the departure or return is more or less on one airline than another. Booking one ways instead round trip or booking 2 different airlines is sometimes a good way to save money especially if you are traveling alone.

5. Best times to book
It has been said that too early and too late are the worst times to purchase and airline ticket. Booking 5 months ahead is too early and booking 2 weeks before is too long.



Personal Tip: Southwest Airlines is my recommendation to anyone flying. They have wonderful customer service. Every time I have had to talk to an employee they were kind and very helpful.A bonus to flying with Southwest is you are able to fly 2 bags for FREE. Also if you have an emergency or change of plan you are given flight credit for the next year. Can't forget about the many animated great flight attendants they have serving you daily.

Short, Sweet & Simple

After reading several articles on how to write for a blog, I have learned a few ways to make my readers feel like they are reading for enjoyment. I know personally that my favorite things to read are short and simple. I hope I can provide that for my readers with a few tips I have learned myself.

Dont's

1. Do not write in long sentences. The longer the post is the less likely people are to read it.

2. Do not try to post everyday. Post when you have something new and exciting for readers to read

3. Try not to write negatively about things. 

Do's 

1. Be relatable to your readers. The more they feel like they know you the more interested and apart   of your blog your readers will feel.

3. Along with make your blog content short and sweet, add pictures and links to help catch the attention of readers.
