      I compare all the possible sites and options and then book for the cheapest price. Of course cancellation free and then once or twice a week check if the price does go even cheaper. If it does cancel the original and book again. 😃

      Amsterdam is an expensive city, so it's hard to save money. Flights are normally pretty cheap so follow the steps in my video and you should be good. I would highly suggest staying in a hostel, if you want to save money. If you want a private room you can get one with an ensuite. I stayed at Stayokay Amsterdam Vondelpark when I was in Amsterdam and it's one of the nicest places i've stayed at! You can book this through hostel world.

      It will all depend on the destination. In most major cities there's great public transport links and these are normally very cheap. For example in Budapest return from the airport to the city centre is only a few pounds. You can of course pay for private transfer but I always avoid this to due the cost.

    Hi Jack can you please do a video helping people in Northern Ireland find cheap holidays. It's a knightmare for us everything is 3 times the price people on the mainland pay and in Belfast our airport has limited destinations you can fly to. We mostly have to fly from Dublin or fly to UK then on to our destination as very few direct flights to places. I have found some amazing cheap deals but need to fly from UK airports then the cost is negated by having to pay dear for flights to the UK first to then get the cheap flight. Thanks for sharing your expertise.

    • @jacklawsontravel
      @jacklawsontravel  2 года назад

      I'm not sure how you could best do that, if i'm honest. A lot of my suggestions should still be helpful, but i'm aware that i'm lucky to be able to fly from a London airport. My advice would be to try and find the cheapest air route to Belfast. For example it's really cheap to fly from London to Milan and it's a great place to fly from for this reason if you're going further afield.

      Always depends where you're travelling. You'll find some destinations aren't affected by school holidays but popular resorts in Spain, Greece etc will be. However even by using these steps you'll find you'll get it cheaper than if you went to a travel provider. Need any help let me know. 🙂

      Well, that's dependent on what you want to take, there are some specific luggage bags you can get for Ryanair & Easy Jet which count as carry-on to avoid luggage fees, which is what I did recently for a trip to Porto. I'm not sure what you mean about boarding pass to phone, there's no extra cost here.

    • @jacklawsontravel
      @jacklawsontravel  Год назад

      It's due to the flight paths, because so many airlines fly to London it by default creates competition for prices. However in smaller airports there isn't the demand so prices are more expensive. The cheapest airport in Scotland in General is Edinburgh but the best place to fly in Northern England would be Manchester as this is the next major hub outside in London in England.

      Air Bnb don't charge per person they only charge by the apartment or room and as this was for two people so I simply divided the cost between two people as I'm basing these prices of per person. This is why you can always get cheap accommodation through Air Bnb.

    • @jacklawsontravel
      @jacklawsontravel  2 года назад +2

      You have to book everything separately not as part of a package. I assume you're talking about Milan? Well here I found an airbnb for two people split that two ways and then added the cost of the of the flights to that which was actually £12 not £10 and that's how I got this price. To get check flights follow the steps I take on Sky Scanner. Let the website choose the destination, search cheapest month and you'll be given a list of options on the website. Remember this only works if you're travelling around countries in Europe. As shown in the videos I've booked super cheap flights to Berlin, Copenhagen, Rome and Milan this way.

      @jacklawsontravel  2 года назад +3

      I respectfully disagree. Your comment suggests you've reacted to the thumbnail more than the video, because I state in the video that prices are based on flights on hotels only. It's very common to get a £10 flight to Milan and i've done this myself. Public transport in Italy is very cheap which makes airport transfer very cheap and there's a number of free tourist sites you can see. Plus I believe how you chose to spend your money is a personal choice, which is why I only discuss flights and hotels and leave that part out. I'm just simply sharing how I book cheap holidays, which has helped me to travel more and I want more people to benefit from this information. If you don't agree that's fine.
