A friendly reminder to keep up on your destinations and flight searches. We’re trying to do the same for 2019 and we’re seeing some great deals. You’ll notice from examples below that there seems to be a Scandinavian trend these past few weeks. That is useful if you are in the market but also for future reference, knowing when the deals come out can be helpful.
As with previous posts, these are listed by The Flight Deal. Those shown here are US → Europe though the email also includes domestic and worldwide flights in case you and the family have eyes for Shanghai, or Sydney, or Cape Town.
First, have destinations and dates on your radar. Be sure to set up alerts and notifications through Google Flights, Skyscanner, and apps like Hopper. Then subscribe to The Flight Deal for daily email newsletter for ongoing deals. The deals only last a few hours to a few days so you have to be prepared to pounce on them when they are available. We hope these recent examples inspire you to keep your search going and find the right flights for your next trip.
Good luck!
Family discussion topic: Fight checklist: destination(s) determined? Dates? What about price ranges? Have you determined levels for “acceptable,” “good,” and “great!” might be?

PS We are not affiliated with The Flight Deal, though we’re sure they’re fine people. We’re just sharing because we want to illustrate that with a little planning you can spend much much less on flights, and, for some families, this can make the difference between family travel and international family travel.
