Booking

Skyscanner

Skyscanner is our go to site whenever we are booking flights. It compares all major airlines and gives you a list of all the cheapest flights on the day you are wanting to fly. If you have some flexiablity, you can also see how much the flight would be a few days before and after the date you were thinking so you can fly out on the cheapest day.

Airbnb

Ever since we discovered this site we haven't book our accommodation anywhere else. Before Airbnb we used to scour the net looking for cheap hotels with at least a kitchenette or some wifi. Now we simpyl jump on to Airbnb and can find apartments and houses to stay in for cheaper then what we would pay in the past for hotels. Plus we can find spaces with full kitchens, cable TV and wifi!

Airbnb

Skiplagged

Skiplagged is a cheeky site that helps you find the cheapest flights possible. What it does is just say you were look to go from San Diego to Chicago, sometimes it can be cheaper to buy a San Diego to New York flight with a Chicago layover, and you can just simply skip your Chicago to New York connection. Pretty clever, huh?
