Love to travel? The international traveller has never had it so good in terms of being able to afford to see world at discounted prices. Sometimes there is a huge over-supply in holidays and this leads to a slash in holiday prices. Below you're going to learn just how to spot cheap holidays as well as best places to find them, particularly if you’re based in UK.

Companies That Offer Regular Travel Bargains

Let's start off with some online companies that have been known to offer good travel discounts. It's best to keep checking these sites regularly as good offers will get snapped up almost immediately. http://www.travel-travel.co.uk/latedl.htm - If you can travel within 30 days it's possible to find some incredibly cheap last minute fares including flights and accommodation. I've seen 7 nights including flights and hotel to Ibiza at prices of just £99. Of course Ibiza is not everyones cup of tea - which is why you'll find equally good deals to Edinburgh, Alicante, Palma, Faro and several other desirable locations. I have also seen 7 nights at a 4 star hotel including flights to Majorca and Belearics at just £130. http://www.bargainholidays.com - Very similar to Travel Travel but also includes a host of cheap city breaks. http://www.holiday-net.com - Again, several travel deals. Also includes properties for sale from abroad. http://www.airparade.co.uk - Just discounted airfares and holidays to several locations. http://www.teletextholidays.co.uk/Homepage/Home.aspx - Look around for some excellent last minute offers from hundreds of holiday providers.

Saving Money On Travel Insurance In UK, you can save money on travel insurance simply by picking up discounted travel insurance from Post Office. Go to your local PO and request a form E111 which can also be used to get free or discounted medical treatment in many European countries. Laws change however so be sure to ask at counter exactly what you're covered for. This form is free and is issued at Post Office - but even with it, you should always travel with proper health insurance. You can also purchase foreign exchange from Post Office.

For a few people, this dream is actually a reality. How? Simply put they have discovered a little travel secret - namely that a lot of companies will actually pay travel expenses for you to oversee their package or document from one country to another. Now this may bring to mind images of having to smuggle a microfilm past some dodgy russian customs ala James Bond, but reality is nowhere near as exciting or dangerous - which is great news for budget traveller. The even better news is that with a little know how, any adult can act as a courier and score free and deeply discounted flight tickets to destination of their choice.
