Last minute travel deals
About last minute travel deals...
When holiday packages and airline tickets haven't been sold in time, the travel agencies and airline companies make significant price discounts to attract clients. And you should be there if you don't want to miss a great travel bargain! Last minute travel deals are a great opportunity for those who have forgotten to make a reservation or book in time for their trip... You can get on an airplane at a moment's notice, you don't have to make a reservation 2 months before... It's cheaper... The comfort is the same as if you would have booked quite some time before. Late bookings can be great bargains, but these offers are limited and only appear from time to time. When looking for last minute travel deals, make sure that you're buying the right thing: normally it should be the same ticket, same trip, only the price should be smaller. A discount might come in handy for you, the money you spare on the ticket purchase can be reinvested into something else useful during your trip...
Few know about these great chances of getting cheap tickets...
The interesting thing is that few people know about these chances. That's why, even so, many seats remain unoccupied on the aircraft taking off and cruiseships departing. Why don't people like late booking deals? Simply because everyone is used to book in advance. We know that we have to make a hotel reservation weeks or months before the trip if we don't want to end up without a room. Of course, we also know that booking in advance might spare you money. Hotels, car rentals are always cheaper if you make reservations before. But: when the seats/vacation packages couldn't be sold in time, companies become desperate to sell them! In this case, "forgetting" to make a reservation might spare you some extra cash!
The way to put you hand on affordable holidays
Search, compare price, preferably online, this way you won't have to run from one agency's office to the other's. Offers are unique, prices vary, but the good thing is that you can get a holiday package, for example, even 3 hours before the cruise ship leaves! But think of it: don't buy too late, you might not get there in time... Places to check for such offers: airline companies (especially the flag carriers, these tend to have more such deals), travel agencies, etc. For more information and advice on the chances + opportunities you have, check our opportunities chapter.
Whenever you're searching for airline tickets, look for late night departures or for departures that are just a few days away. These should be cheaper. Also check the low cost airlines which sell incredibly cheap tickets, but you'll have to do a bit of comparison before your purchase. Often, the tickets only cost several dozens of dollars. Try to find late night flights, or flights that are close to the time of your booking, usually these are less expensive. Also try out several variants of departure times, because in the case of the low cost airlines, the prices vary a lot from one date to another. The same trip can cost you several tens of dollars on certain days, or several hundreds on others!
It is also a good idea to check what travel agencies offer... These companies have a larger number of services than airline companies, but you'll have to be prepared that you won't often find large flashing commercial banners on the streets saying: "Major discounts, come 'n' get it!", because this way everyone would book late and the companies would have to sell much cheaper tickets... What you should do in order to find such deals is to ask, whether they still have "tickets for tomorrow" and how much it will cost you... Usually the closer the date of the departure is and the more unsold tickets they have, the cheaper they will sell them!
