Okay, heading home for Xmas but can’t afford to do so? Here are a few tricks to help get you home:
By air travel:
- Subscribe to Travelocity.ca FareWatcher and input your round trip info and a reasonable price that you’re willing to pay to get home. Make sure to choose the option for them to email you when a flight becomes available at your selected price or lower.
- When checking websites for prices yourself, check a couple of times daily for several days to become familiar with the price fluctuations that occur throughout the day for your specific chosen flight dates/times. You will find that the best prices are available at around midnight.
- If you’re going “home” you likely won’t need the travel insurance that is always offered as an extra but they try to sneak in with your ticket purchase (read everything on the page).
