How To Find Cheap Flights In 12 Easy Steps
Do you know how to find cheap flights with a price alert? I love this tip!
Allan from The Practical Saver
“One of the best ways to find a cheap flight is to subscribe for price alerts for your chosen itinerary. When you look for flights, especially if you have enough time ahead of you, don’t pay right away. That’s the biggest mistake you could make. Chances are the flight fare you’re looking for isn’t the best deal yet.”
“To get the best deal, pay attention to the price alerts. They’re your frugal-friendly reminders. Best yet, do these for a couple of sites that sell airline tickets, so you know when the prices decrease or increase for a number of sites. This way, you can not only compare the prices among sellers but also see any changes in the price of the flights you want to choose. Never decide to buy tickets right away.”
Want to know how to do it?
There are several websites that let you set price alerts.
My favorite ones are:
On Google Flights, you can select “track prices” to watch fares on specific routes. You need to be logged in your Google account.
- At the top, choose the number of stops, cabin class, and how many tickets you need.
- Choose your departure airport and destination.
- To track prices for this route, turn on the switch next to “Track prices.”
- Tip: You can also track prices for a specific flight: just select the flight you want to track, then click “Track price.”
