My flight from the USA to Singapore was only $400 round trip. The airlines were charging between $800 and $2000. I stayed in Southeast Asia for an extra month on the money I saved. I recommend this book for people who want to travel more, but need a good deal in order to do it. Was this review helpful to you? ( Report this ) 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful: You won't find this information on the Web! , January 24, 2001 Reviewer: This very useful and tightly written guide explores every aspect of cheap travel, including flight consolidators, couriers, and charters. It's the first book I've ever seen that explains the complex business of airline ticket pricing and arms you with knowledge that lets you beat the airlines at their own game. If you're adventurous and super thrifty, you can even learn how to fly for free! There's a huge listing of airfare discounters and other dirt-cheap travel resources, arranged by hub city. McColl provides a mini-guide for each locale, along with tips on low-cost meals and lodging, recommended stopovers, and offbeat sights to see. This isn't your standard travel faire, either -- the travel writing is as witty and down-to-earth as any Lonely Planet or Moon-series guide. Do not--repeat--do not think you can find all this stuff on the Internet. I know of no site or group of sites that can provide so many low-cost travel airfare strategies in one quick and easy reference. It's a good read -- and it will definitely save you money. Was this review helpful to you? ( Report this ) 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful: It really helps! , December 15, 2000 Reviewer: Martin (New York, USA) - See all my reviews I found this book to be a big help. It gave me more than travel tips. Its real value comes from the author's ability to give the reader an idea on how the travel industry works. Sure, there are the tried and true strategies (i.e., getting bumped) but there are other angles recommended by the author that are less obvious and of great value. Was this review helpful to you? ( Report this ) 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful: A Must For Every Traveler! , November 20, 2000 Reviewer: Pamela Waller (Aurora, IL United States) - See all my reviews I wish I had a copy of this book seven years ago when I went to Denmark. It was my first time out of the USA. This book would have not only explained options to me that I didn't know I had, but also would have saved me a ton of money. It is simple to understand and I like the fact that it list not only different airlines and options, but prices as well. I can see why this book has been printed so many times as the information it contains is so beneficial to everyone. Anyone who travels should possess this informative book.

( Report this ) 0 of 1 people found the following review helpful: Same old same old , November 17, 2000 Reviewer: If you have read one article on cheap travel you have already read this book. Don't waste your money, you can get the exact same information on the internet. Was this review helpful to you? ( Report this ) 3 of 4 people found the following review helpful: Best Advice for Cheap Flights! , July 31, 2000 Reviewer: Brad Olsen (San Francisco, CA United States) - See all my reviews As a travel author myself, I appreciate good writing on the subject. I find McColl's book a must-have, as I continue to use it on a near monthly basis. This information is indispensable, especially if your are a budget-conscious traveler like myself.
