Avoid Travel During Holidays
Usually peak air travel surcharges are added to dates around holidays, however many airlines nowadays have attached these surcharges en bloc during the summer season. Many of the major airlines have attached the highest surcharges to Sundays in July and August. You can get very cheap flights almost anywhere if you opt for dates other than these.
Choose your Travel Dates Well
According to travel industry insiders, flights departing early in the morning on Tuesday and Wednesday typically offer very cheap flights and fares. If you are looking to save money, then Sunday flights should be avoided at all costs.
Pack Light
And avoid additional fees from airlines. Transporting "extra" baggage has become a luxury add-on for airline travellers. Fees for extra bags can reach as high as $25 for the first checked bag and $35 for the second checked bag. Overweight bag fees can range from $39-200 depending on the airline, so be sure to check the weight limits before you pack. It may be more cost effective to pack two smaller bags as opposed to one large one. Balancing out on check-in baggage with allowed cabin baggage will help you save.
To Sum Up
Summer is the season for holidays and vacations. A tight budget should not prevent you from enjoying your time off. Instead of staying home, explore cheaper alternatives that can provide you with equally good times for substantially lower costs. For those in the US, there are a number of cheap vacations spots in Asia where you can really stretch your dollar. South America and Africa off the beaten track should not be that expensive.
