I was travelling in Thailand in the mid 1990's with a companion. He was a very shrewd traveller who always travelled on a low budget. It was the information he gave to me that saved me a fortune on flight tickets. He told me how to get cheap last minute flights just by following the steps I am going to outline for you.

Many people make the mistake of shopping for the flight in the wrong places. This was abundantly clear because I have made the same mistake in my early days of travelling. These travel shops convinced me that this was the best price available and all the other travel shops would offer me the exact same price or even higher. I did not want to lose the flight so I made the mistake and panicked and paid for the flight. Hindsight is a wonderful thing but it did not do me much good back then.

What my friend told me was o only focus on companies that were flight specialists. Not companies that offered family holidays and weekend getaways. These places have no authority in the flight market and because they are found on the high street have substantial overheads that they have to cover. It makes complete sense doesn't it?

So how do you get cheap last minute flights? Just go to the flight specialists, you then have the very best chance of getting the price you need. There is no need to panic and don't be bullied by any company. You will soon find out what the bottom line is very soon by contacting flight specialists.
