Flight terms no one tells you about, that can help you be savvy with your bookings 🤓

There’s a lot we don’t know about how airlines price flights, but we know enough to figure out how to find the cheapest prices & avoid overpaying. 

If you listened to my podcast with aideenfinnegan you’ll have heard us talk about how procrastination is the number one reason most people overpay for trips, or miss out on a holiday. 

And the main reason for that is that it can be just so *overwhelming* sometimes! 

Do you search airline websites or skyscanner? 

What even IS skyscanner? Is it an agent? Will it cost me more? 

Why is the price increasing when I look at it a few times? 

Why do I find a flight and then it disappears when I click on it? 

Is Trip.com / kiwi safe to book with? 

How long do I need for a connecting flight?!

Swipe through to learn a little bit about aggregators / caching / OTAs and how to use them to save a little money on your next flight.

Save this post for later or send it to someone who it might help! It took like 6 hours 🥲 so I hope it  helps you save a lot of money, or at least make booking a flight a little less stressful next time ❤️

Got any more questions, drop em in the comments!

For OTAs, I’ll pop the tips in the comments
