💡 Tips for a cheaper ticket
Flights hackSearch one-way tickets on two airlines
Two one-way fares on different airlines are often cheaper than one return – and give you more freedom to change plans.
Money hackAlways pay in the local currency
When a card machine offers to charge you in your home currency, say no – the conversion rate is almost always worse.
