So in honor of National Cheap Flight Day I’m gifting you with the power to be VISIONARY! People always ask me how I find flight deals and the answer is simple, I’m Never Not Looking For Them. Now y’all know my tag line is Chase Deals Not Destinations, but there’s more than one way to do that. Do I love Skyscanner? ABSOLUTELY! But like I learned my first day as a Freshman at an HBCU, the most powerful tool you can equip yourself with is a network and a variety of resources to improve your outcomes. My NETWORK IS MY NET WORTH, and when it come to finding Flight Deals, I’m Ballin! 🛫I use multiple apps to optimize my searches. 🛫 I subscribe to various regional carrier email lists to stay abreast of sales. 🛫 I set flight deal notifications for destinations I can frequently find flight deals to. 🛫 I set fare drop alerts for my travel dates. 🛫I familiarize myself with award travel minimums so I know when I’m getting a good deal. Fun Fact: National Cheap Flight Day originated from the consumer trend in which airfares drop in price following the higher-priced summer travel season. Historically, this is the time of year when the summer travel rush is over and airlines are looking to attract travellers with great Fall and holiday deals. 🚨Airfare prices usually start to go back up around the end of September as we start gearing up for the holidays.
