How to have a 5 Star Holiday on a 2 Star Budget

Written by Tukshad Engineer


Continued from page 1
Every year there is a huge surplus in flights and holidays. Holiday companies have to estimate how many holidays will be demanded for any particular location and time - they never get it just right. Every year there is a surplus on certain holidays and flights, and if all places haven't been filled byrepparttar final few days, you can pick up some really dramatic discounts. Flights and accommodation are priced according to supply and demand - and this supply and demand follows a certain pattern. Once you knowrepparttar 134135 situations where supply exceeds demand, and you knowrepparttar 134136 right time to buy, you can save big time. A good example of this are fly by drives torepparttar 134137 States - typically mid-November is whenrepparttar 134138 cheapest fly drives are available and you can pick up deals for under £150 for 14 days (I've seen them as low as £99). Keep an eye on teletext holidays if you're interested in this type of deal. If you do not mind coming back on Christmas day you can also find some stunning deals available. This may not be ideal for family trips but certainly forrepparttar 134139 lone traveller it's a worthwhile option to check out. How to spot cheap deals - With a little know how you can really figure out which flights and holidays are likely to be put on special offer as late deals. It all boils down to supply and demand - A good example of this isrepparttar 134140 late availability deals on teletext. 7 Nights in Lisbon, flights and self catered all included for £79 IF you waited a few days before departure. This was initially offered at £149 a month or so before. But how is it possible to know thatrepparttar 134141 price would come crashing down to just £79? The secret is to contactrepparttar 134142 company offeringrepparttar 134143 deal and ask them how many seats are left. Inrepparttar 134144 Lisbon case there were just 14 seats booked 5 days prior to departure - there was no chance of this holiday being booked by departure date andrepparttar 134145 result? A massive discount offered to those who booked atrepparttar 134146 last minute. This is howrepparttar 134147 holiday business works and now that you know this you can make incredible savings just by making a few calls on holidays you're interested in. If you're going to use this strategy then make sure you pick 5 or so potential locations - this way in case your first couple of choices do get booked you have an alternative choice. Car Hire & Day Trips should always be booked outside your holiday booking company otherwise you'll almost certainly pay a premium. Usually there are specialist shops in most town centres that have been setup to provide car hire/day trips and you can save quite a lot of money using them. London Airport Parking - Parking in London & other UK locations can get very expensive. Try London Airport Parking and Airport Parking UK for inexpensive parking options. I really hope this helps all of you track down some incredible bargains.
