Cheap flight tickets?

Today im gonna write in engslih! So for today I want to tell how you can find cheap tickets to South Korea, I know that alot of people use ALOT of money on their tickets when they dont really have to :P *These tips are mostly for those living in scandinavia, I dont know how the flight costs works in the US or rest of Europe.. * ____________________________________________________________________________________1. Decide what you want.. This is very important, I cant tell you to choose a cheap flight that might save you money but will take 30 hours to fly! You have to decide if you wanna go the super cheap and super long way, the middle way or the quick but more expencive way. :) For me I took the middle way, I paid a little bit more for a shorter flight, because I dont want to spend 1,5 days on airports and in the air! And I only have ONE stop, the cheapest once I have found have two stops.. and that can be hard for a new traveler or someone who hasnt traveled alot :O **LIKE ME** ! ____________________________________________________________________________________ 2. SO now you have chosen your way, now its time to find good sites to buy your ticket! My first warning.. BE CAREFUL!! there is site out there who can sceam you of money! So my tip is to go for the more famouse once and check there.. or maybe go directly to the airline you want to travel with! Now that I have said that... back to HOW TO FIND GOOD SITES! well, first off you can try search engines such as Momondo.(com), skyscanner.(net) or farecompare.(com)... I found my ticket on momondo, So im gonna talk about them! They are very easy to use, and they only use trustworthy flightcompanies! HOW TO SEARCH: put in where you wanna go from (airport), then where you want to go (Seoul, Busan etc) then you choose round-trip (To korea and home) or one-way (only to korea). choose a date, and search! Now that you have done that.. be sure to look at the time, how long will the flight take? How long will I be on the ground(changing flights, how many stops etc) *IMPORTANT: YOU NEED ATLEAST 2 HOURS ON THE GROUND IF YOU GONNA CHANGE PLANE! SECURTY TAKES FOREVER!* I know this from personal experience, that even 2 hours can be too little if your flight is late.. so be carefull with that.. if you miss your flight, you miss your flight.. ____________________________________________________________________________________ 3. NOW you have found your perfect ticket! The price is good and the time is right for you, then click on order and the site will take you to another site (you cant buy tickets from a search engine!). This site is where you order your tickets, mine was Travel2be, but there is ALOT of sites :) I paid around 527 US dollars for a one-way ticket :P That is pretty cheap in Norway! You pay with creditcard, paypal or mastercard.. it depends on you :) ____________________________________________________________________________________ so.. there you have it! :D Its kinda messy how I explained it.. so I hope you understand still ^^ _______________________________________________________________________ SOME MORE TIPS: -I would look up the airlines before buying a ticket (you can see what airline you will fly with on the tickest online!) *I would recommend KLM, Emirates and British airways, I have traveled with these companies a few times, except Emirates which is the company I will fly with now. They have one of the best reputations in the world!* *I would not recommend Aeroflot, off my personal experience they did not come to my standards.. but they did have good food! :) However, service was not so good, and they didn't speak alot of english.. other then that it was a pretty peaceful flight.* - BE picky on your tickets! With this I dont mean you should ask for everything for 450 US dollars.. but be picky with time, stops and prices(what do you get for your money) - Buy a luggage weight so you can weigh your luggage before going to the airport! I do this on every travel I do (on plane...). Its a bummer if you have to pay alot of money just because your bag is overweight.. :/ So try to be 2 kg under the allowence :P 28-29 kg if its 30 kg and so on. - Remember that your bag is not made of air... so when you have 30 kg, it might mean only 25kg is for cloths and other stuff.. :P - If you think flights are boring.. bring some music, games and watch movies !! My flight plan is comming up in the next blog! - go to the airlines homepage and read how much you can pack and WHAT you are alloowed to pack! :) That is all for now! See you in the next blogpost, its gonna be about my flight plan/what I pack with me on the carry-on bag! Until then, have a safe jungle life~ - Jessica
