Common Mistakes you might be making when booking flights, and how to avoid them.
Flight search engines, like Google Flights, make it easy for anyone to search and buy their own flights. These booking sites (or OTAs – online travel agents) allow you to see all the flight options available (flight times, airlines, and dates) and can help you save money on your booking by showing you the cheapest flights. If you have ever wondered “How do I book a flight on Google flights”, this video is for you! However, the cheapest flight fares may not be a travel hack, but instead come with hidden costs.
The problem with these search engines is that they don’t always notify you of things that could completely derail your trip BEFORE you buy a flight. This is why many people still choose to use a travel agent as they will know if the connection is too short, if you need proof of onward travel, or if you will e charged high baggage fees with a budget airline. Here are 10 things to look out for before you decide to purchase a flight to save time, money, and stress. If you have ever tried to change a flight after it is booked, you know the process is costly!
