Sam Chui , check this website www.cheapflights.com
Thank you for sharing Sam.
Sam Chui do u recommend buying miles which can cheapen the tickets more?
be careful, you must understand the valuation of miles vs the ticket. Only benefit in the case the cost of buying miles is less than the ticket cost! I will do a video on the valuation of miles next Friday :)
Sam Chui perhaps maybe u can demo on singapore to hong kong or to china(Beijing or shanghai)😉
Thanks
This video is an excellent behind-the-scene guide with very well chosen practical examples and booking site references. Thank you much for this Sam.
Very good for reviewing facilities for business class and VIP. But whether someone like me who uses the wheel of wheels can enjoy the facility. Can disabled passengers use the facilities or be available to us. Thank you and I beg you to review it in your website.
Thanks so much! I work and pay for my flights and economy is all I can afford I know I am blessed just to have the opportunity to travel ..but my biggest dream is to be able to travel at least once in business 😊. Thanks for sharing Sam. I love your videos!
For $100 a year this site better automatically search cheaper city pairs for me..
your name is very very funny in Polish. it means: "the dick/prick himself" :D
A very valuable and insightful video. Thankis, again Sam
Thank you so much, and my parents needs this. :)
Why do your parents need this
Abdullah Haque we are going to travel btw.
Nathaniel Villapando ok
Mind blowing vlog sam! #samchuiforever
When comparing prices from expertflyer and the QF website, you didn't mention the QF sites prices said it included all taxes and fees while you had stated expertflyer did not. Just sayin, that may make QF sites prices look more inflated than they actually are. Love your content though bro keep up the good work!
F%@K! You uploaded this just after I finished booking a flight from Sydney to London!! -.-
I have been using matrix.itasoftware.com (now owned by google) for years for prices. You cannot book a ticket with them, but when entering your departure or arrival cities, it will ask you if you want to try neighboring cities, anywhere from 50 to 2000 miles from your points. It quickly locates the cheapest points of departure. I'm hoping to go to Singapore in September. I live in Atlanta. Air in business is roughly $6500-8000. and UP from Atlanta. Plugging in 1000 miles from Atlanta, Houston Texas showed up, roughly $2000-4000. cheaper than Atlanta, on MOST airlines, Delta included. Going back to the Delta web site, and playing a few games, even lower fares popped up. Another point. Fares change daily, sometimes several times a day. Be firm of heart! If you saw a great fare a day ago, and it disappears, WAIT. It will probably return on Tuesday or Wednesday next week. (Although Delta's fares seem to drop on Mondays, gradually rising to a peak on Friday, only to drop again by Wednesday.) Great video, and thank you. Signing off, and checking out momondo.com
Winner of a video, I have been researching "travel flights" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Beyarper Peyameron Process - (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some amazing things about it and my mate got excellent results with it.
Sam, this video is a real winner. Thanks for such helpful information.
But to take advantage of Cairo to Melbourne at $1200, you have to get to Cairo.
If you were in the UK you could get good deals on BA or EgyptAir. Used to fly both regularly for around £350 return. Some time ago though
Cairo airport is a hell hole that I wouldn’t wish upon anyone.
It’s no surprise it’s cheaper as you’d have cut out most of the journey from London to Dubai if you fly from Cairo. London to Cairo is about £400. Not worth it.
What about a VPN and changing your location from your country / state to another which can have different rates.
Hi, How do you do this please? Does it work?
They would probably use your billing address.@@greatwhitesharky3261
Been doing that for many years. You save quite a lot
Travel cheap and with ease. Book your vacation and travels with Webghost , who can hack and make your tickets and accommodation cheap. so why not book a round tickets for your vacation and spend lesser the usual amount?
helped me through my last vacation in Singapore, can't believe i spent $1800 lesser than the usual amount i used to.

email; webghost33 cyberservices,.com
what? and how would you fly from the country you're masking from?
Crazy cheaper for me to fly Birmingham to Paris, Paris to Heathrow, Heathrow to Bangkok with BA rather than Heathrow to Bangkok.
I use Google Flights, I fly for 4 hours from DUS to AYT on economy for 40 EUR ONE WAY, I think it's a great free alternative as it shows prices with dates and offers a plenty of filters.
Same here then I compare with other sites
I like what you do I appreciate it my question is how can I get a cheap ticket going to Africa Nigeria precisely
Chukwu Ikechukwu come out from your apartment by 12am midnight 🕛 you’ll see different brooms in the air. Hold on to anyone and fly down to Naija 🤪😜😂
Fantastic Sam! You're a mine of good information.
Sam thx so much. Momondo is awesome
That was great Sam. You lost me with the 'codes' though. I'll have to do some research to get a better understanding of them.
Many thanks, I've been looking for "ways to find cheapest flight" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Beyarper Peyameron Process - (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some super things about it and my buddy got amazing success with it.
Hey Sam just letting you know your email is on that expert flyer page at the login at the top in case you were unaware
Sam Chui . Wxaan Jeclaan Lahaa In aan Mar uun London Kula kulmo your My Legend
Great content. Is this applicable on Philippines Airlines?
Great video, but only the tip of the iceberg of just how much searching can go into booking a flight!
If anyone (particularly you Sam) can go to my channel and check out my flight review of Air India's 787 Business class and provide feedback, I'd be very grateful!
Which credit card is good to buy all these airfare tickets for US passengers? Do we need to signup for any airfare programs [Eg: One World, Sky Team or Star Alliance]?
You're comparing flights with taxes with flights without taxes in the video
sam Chui, hello, in Emirates airline, flying from Dubai to London Gatwick Airport , my mrs. Didn't get free bag of gift, on First class,
Excellent info for frequent traveller like me 👍 . Thanks Sam .
Sam Chui, please from Manila on Business Class, i didn't get the bag of toiletries from Airline?
This VDO is a valuable and useful for travelers. Sam ,Can you share how to find cheapest tickets from the US to different countries too. Thank you so much Sam.
Learned a lot today. Your willingness to share all this information is super useful and helpful. There are many people like us who enjoy the videos but don't post enough. Don't let some of the negative comments get to you.
Great Video Sam! Any recommendations on the cheapest route options for business class from New York to Bangkok?
Thanks Sam, good stuff for us people who know how it all works but never really got the incentive to do it, perhaps because do not fly that much or someone else pays!
Hi Sam, I’m Huge Tibetan Fan of yours. Thank you so much for sharing all those great informations. Question: what is the best airline = fly business class from PDX to DEL or India?
Thank you
why not just fly in Economy Class but use mileage points to get a free upgrade ?
He mentioned that in a later video. It's not the best use of your miles.
That WhereToCredit site is what I've been missing. I'll accrue miles but don't know where to credit them. I know I can credit them to different airlines, even if I fly Delta Premium or JAL, but where do I credit those miles? That site has answered my question.
Thank you, sir! I really enjoy watching your videos. Most reviewers are all "HYPE TRAIN, ALL ABOARD!" and super annoying. I would say that you and AskSebby are probably the most pragmatic and realistic of the reviewers.
Great job, sir!
Misleading title. Unless your premium class airfares are cheaper than economy class, your title (Sam Chui Travel Hacks: How to find the LOWEST airfare?) is grossly misleading.
Thank you for your informative video Sam! It was helpful.
Plz check ‘James Asquith' also upload a new video about how to fly first class at a cheap price.
Sam - where/how do I purchase a voucher to use Emerates lounges during my coming travels.
Mike Johnston you can access the Emirates 🇦🇪 Lounge once you have an active platinum MasterCard.
LOL, the longer you fly the cheaper the flights get. Crazy airline pricing.
is it free version also can view I mean compare the cheapest flight? i believe you are yearly member for experflyer rite"? nice video
For cheap tickets fly Boeing or die trying.
Hi, Sam. What is the application you use in your mobile phone to keep track of your travel history and aircraft types you had flew on. Thank You
To be honest the best deals when traveling are actually going to the websites of an alliance airline. Booking with Star Alliance.com shows be better deals than say expedia or orbitz. The same works for Skyteam.com. For me booking with One World.com always pains me.
I have a question Ohio USA-philippine Davio City do you have any connecting flight thank you.
Looking for a good site to search for bus/1st class tickets cheap, where I am very flexible as to dates. Any ideas?
Hey I'm from Bangladesh, How cancel my chines airlines ticket could you help me...
This tactic is suitable for economic class traveling,Business and first class passenger doesn’t bother to these inconvenience they basically tend to pay few more bucks in order to save time .
Hi Sam. Do you use ITA Matrix too is that helpful when researching then contacting an agent to book? Interested in mixed cabin most if the time.
Hi Sam, i just got a quick question. I'm based in South Africa can i still use these website to purchase airtickets?
Please advise the best valued route to fly from Melbourne Australia to Istanbul Turkey. Thanks
Sam you are indeed trying to help, but when i logged in the free portal , to my surprise and dismay in free options one cant even see flight schedule as you are showing here under the fare info . if we cant even check fare on flight schedule than whats the point of giving free access or portal . totally disappointed
Sam Chui is just a paid advertisement service for airlines. Don’t put too much faith in his flight review videos.
This one of the few useful videos he has made.
Well after listening to this I can see that it would work for those who can, but looks like economy for me, this kind of money even though there are savings its out of my reach.
It looks cheap when you are paid in usd. But it's not that cheap if it's convert to idr rupiah.. Sigh
You want cheaper flights no worries, just wait until the airlines have sales. You can save up to 50% in some cases
Your video was very informative! Thank you!
Any suggestions to fly cheaper on TG business class. I'm silver member & have 100k miles on credit card.
im not sure if Im doing somehting wrong but iceland air does not work with expertflyer.com atleast not the flight number
Thanks Sam We will used the website on our next booking
Amazing EPIC video Mr Chui..... thank you
Hope your safe please use nasa suit when your travelling cause coronavirus is in the air tc bro
I thought Flight Centre in Australia offers cheap tickets
what about round trips??? one way tickets cost more!!!
Sam, hi. I really like your channel..I wonder of you could help.me.woth two things: I am.jn Brasil I want to join an airline club. I HAVE SMILES dont find them too far. How can I find the best air fares.out of Sao Paulo Gru or VCP to Australia and US? How to become a pro like you? Thanks.so much for evereything.
This has to be the most understandable and detailed version of this topic I've seen so far. Thanks Sam!
Hi Sam, binge watching your videos. How are these better than lets say priceline or orbitz?? A little confused here ;)
You should try Skiplagged
i cannot even afford economic class airplanes...
Muhammad Fikri Ramadhan Allah will help you
Other religions do help
I tuned out 1/3 way in. It just too complicated for casual travelers like me. But, I am sure if someone travels with lots of time and money on their hands, AND enjoys clicking around on their computers, this is a great tool.
Mr. Chui great information. Have you ever looked at Scott's Cheap Flights for discounted tickets? Are there any airlines which you would avoid unless it was free?
Nothing beats Google flights. In my opinion. Lets hope travelling can return in 2023!!
Except google flights shows you a flight price then once you select them, the next page they have gone up 3 grand (business class) and there is a note that says "sorry the pice you saw eariler is no loner available"
One needs to be careful booking thru the 3rd party agents that come up in sites like Momondo. If you need to change a booking it must be done thru them and in addition to any airline surcharges they want a want a massive fee for doing that. I booked a one way ticket from Melbourne to Trivandrum which looked like I needed to change but the extra costs from the ticket seller would have meant it cheaper to throw it away and re-book. Unless it's massively cheaper which it rarely is, I always pay a bit extra and book directly with the airline website but use Momondo and Skyscanner to find the flights and airlines I want
I love your videos, I'm studying to be a flight attendant and ur vlog inspires me a lot. Kisses and hugs from Argenina!
How are you now?
Actually 3,800$ in business class from London to Melbourne is pretty cheap. Me and my dad flew to Dubai from Seattle in economy for 2,000$....
Sam Chui has tons of excellent reviews in business and first class, I have been a fan since many years. The tricks to find the lowest fares in First or Business class are not bad. However, meanwhile there exist some pages that post business and first class deals on a daily basis. That makes it easy for everyone to find cheap business class airfares. My top 2 pages are a forum called Flyertalk, which has a dedicated page for premium fares from all over the worls, and a page called Premium-Flights which has as well an integrated search engine.
This is awesome!! Thank you very much Sam.
I could not be bothered searching like this. Skyscanner or the wisemiser always have good prices. You really don't have to spend hours looking like this its ridiculous
Better saving advice. Fly economy
Hi Sam. What do you think of Google Flight? I love them due to its real-time pricing for different return dates, on the calendar itself. There are tons of other good features that they have when you start digging. Best. Azizan
2 questions, 1: if i book through momondo or other flight search engine will i still get airlines miles/ club points? as i know, to get club points ( ex : cathay ), you need to book it through its own website? . 2: is there any free alternative to expertflyer pro ? thanks
Try next time start yout journey from Copenhagen
This is so useful! I’m planning to use my miles to fly MH Business Class to Seoul later this year
Just found this channel and subscribed. When traveling in first class with a butler and all, is it proper etiquette to tip the first class airline staff? Are tips expected? Can one of you professional first class travelers please answer my neophyte question? Thank you!
Sam: I have watched plenty of your RUclips videos. I enjoyed everyone of them. I have AA credit card and get enough miles to use business class. Next year I will take business class from DFW to DEL in May, 2021. I have traveled enough and I can say proudly I visited all 7 continents. I saw how to get low fares for premium class. I live in US since 1972 and originally from India. God Bless You
Great video, Sam. I have a question and hope you can help. I’m from Malaysia. If I book a return flight on MAS from BKK to NRT via KUL, and assuming I’ve completed the first leg. Now on the way back from NRT to BKK, I decided to skip the BKK leg. Can I ask them to check my bags to KUL and inform them I will leave the airport at KUL and abandon the KUL-BKK flight?
hi Sam i'm trying to find the deal for my flight going from clt to phn. i would like to fly premium economy most of the way. just not what the typical price should be
I love Sam Chui's videos but this one does seem a bit like watching chef Ramsey discussing the McDonald's dollar menu.
Hi Sam I really like your videos sometimes 5 times a day as I like planes my self my name is dassa in fact I use to look after a small airport as a aerodrome reporting officer and a aircraft refuler today I had to ask my partner how to get in touch with you which I hope to get to know u and email u in private I hope you will contact me also have you ever flown royal burnei I have yet but will soon in fact only a couple of month To go have a nice day and waiting your speedy reply
ANOTHER excellent video! You are obviously very familiar with those website. Thanks for the help!
how is momondo different to expedia? do they get different discount rate? I always use expedia and the airline's own website to compare. I also use ebookers and skyscanner but find results are very similar most of the time.
skyscanner is also a good website
You have to pay for searching on the internet¿¿¿
Sam, I had an awful experience with Momondo. I had booked a flight from Santiago to Helsinki connecting through JFK. What happened through Momondo was my first flight (SCL -> JFK) was not registered. I spent over 2.5 hours the night before with LATAM making sure that I was on the flight to JFK, otherwise there would be no way I could g eat to Helsinki. LATAM fixed MOMONDO’s screw up!
Just thought you would like to know 😀
I enjoy your videos 😀
Hi Sam, Grateful for your info however I have always wondered for example: If Someone is going from LHR to PER, why is it cheaper to get on or commence your journey from CDG. I could never understand that, Your in LHR and just to get the best fare you have to go to CDG to get it?. Could you explain to me why as a lot of airlines seem to be doing this
No matter what. I would rather pay the top dollar than sit in the less that first class seat. I pay top dollar and expect top service. Thank You for the information.
In fact ,China southern says their website is always providing the cheapest fare and if you found something cheaper, you may ask them to refund your spare fare
Don't understand how a busy business man like Sam could spend so much time looking after all that website!
