People are often put off from booking a trip when they see the price of the flight they want, but with a little flexibility and some clever travel hacks, you can significantly reduce the price you pay for every flight that you take.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes getting cheaper flights involves making small changes whereas sometimes it involves giving up certain perks.

Airlines offer different flights on different days. For example, you might find it&#8217;s significantly cheaper to start your holiday on a Tuesday instead of a Saturday or to fly during a different month when fewer people are traveling. You can utilize flight search and monitoring engines like <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/afwd\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Kayak<\/strong><\/a> to get notified when prices drop for your preferred travel dates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember to be as flexible with your dates as possible if you want to get cheaper flight tickets. Although this can require some compromises and careful planning, it can also save you hundreds upon hundreds of dollars in the long run. Plus, you might end up finding that you can fly to your dream destination for a lot cheaper than you expected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter wp-image-15288 size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" src=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/travel-credit-cards-cheap-flights.jpg\" alt=\"Best Travel Reward Credit Cards To Use\" class=\"wp-image-15288\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/travel-credit-cards-cheap-flights.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/travel-credit-cards-cheap-flights-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/travel-credit-cards-cheap-flights-310x206.jpg 310w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Using a travel rewards credit card is one of the most efficient ways to get cheap flights, even when you&#8217;re not currently planning on traveling.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><a name=\"credit-cards\"><\/a>Utilize a Travel Rewards Credit Card<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For years, many of our staff have been asked how they&#8217;ve been able to travel so frequently and in so much style. This is done by employing a strategy we like to call &#8220;travel hacking.&#8221; All it really entails is using a number of credit cards responsibly to earn points and miles, and then strategically spending them on flights of your choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We want to emphasize &#8220;responsibly.&#8221; It&#8217;s easy to get carried away once you witness the power of credit cards, but if you&#8217;re able to pay off your balance each month, having an arsenal of travel credit cards in your wallet will allow you to rack up points for many of your daily purchases. In addition, some premium travel credit cards come with high signup bonuses, which are attained after spending a certain amount on the card within a short time frame (usually 3 months).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below, we&#8217;ll discuss our favorite travel credit card. In the future, we&#8217;ll publish a more detailed guide on the subject and how you can maximize your earning and spending potential with additional cards. The author of this article carries 10 credit cards in his wallet at all times to maximize his travel abilities, while still maintaining an excellent credit score. Yes, it is possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Chase Sapphire Reserve\u00ae<\/strong> card is optimal for people who travel frequently or plan to. It does come with a high annual fee of $550, but it&#8217;s offset by the perks we mention below, which increase in value if you travel frequently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Currently, it comes with a 50,000 point signup bonus once you spend $4,000 in the first 3 months of card membership. While the signup bonus is decent, the real perks come with its points earning categories. You&#8217;ll get 10x points when you spend money on hotels or car rentals if you purchase them through their Ultimate Rewards portal, and 5x points on air travel booked through Ultimate Rewards. The most lucrative category in our mind though is the 3x points on any travel or dining spend. So, anytime you eat at a restaurant, order Taco Bell, or even call an Uber, you&#8217;re working your way towards free travel. While this all sounds great, the perks don&#8217;t stop there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chase will give you an annual $300 travel credit for any money you spend on travel. That includes airlines, hotels, taxis, Uber and more. Now through December 31st, 2021, spending at grocery stores and gas stations will also count towards your travel credit. This perk alone turns your annual fee into just a modest $250.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This card gives you lounge access to over 1,300 airports worldwide, ensuring a comfortable and more affordable visit to most airports globally. In addition, Chase pays you $100 towards your application fee for Global Entry or TSA Precheck. That again offsets your annual fee to just $150.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another huge money saver: redeeming flights through the Ultimate Rewards portal will net you 50% more value on redemption. For instance, 50,000 points translates into $750 towards flights (or any travel category in the portal).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, one of the best money-saving perks that also helps with peace of mind, is you have trip cancellation, interruption, car rental collision, and lost luggage insurance simply by being a cardmember.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>RELATED: <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/top-credit-card-picks\" target=\"_blank\">Our Top Credit Card Picks To Save Money on Travel and Wine<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><a name=\"departure-airports\"><\/a>Change Your Departure Airport<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Another powerful travel hack that will net you cheaper flights is to change your departure airport. Since every airport serves different routes, you might find it significantly cheaper to fly out of one that&#8217;s further away. This is especially true in the case of those who aren&#8217;t close to an international airport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, let&#8217;s say you&#8217;re in Philadelphia and want to travel to <strong><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/italy\/rome-itinerary-3-days\/\" target=\"_blank\">Rome<\/a><\/strong>. Instead of flying out of Philadelphia International Airport, you&#8217;ll likely find a much cheaper flight with one of the various international airports in <strong><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/new-york\/5-best-wine-bars-nyc\/\" target=\"_blank\">New York<\/a><\/strong>. Although you&#8217;ll have to spend more time traveling to the airport, this has the potential to save you a ton of money even for a single flight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> <strong><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/italy\/cinque-terre-travel-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\">How To Visit Cinque Terre in Italy, or &#8220;5 Villages&#8221;<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><a name=\"destination-airports\"><\/a>Change Your Destination Airport<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Changing your departure airport isn&#8217;t the only quick change that can make your flights significantly cheaper. You can also find much cheaper flights by flying to a different departure airport. Not only is this a smart way to save money, but you could even extend your trip by visiting two destinations at once.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, instead of flying from <strong><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/united-kingdom\/best-london-wine-bars-restaurants\/\" target=\"_blank\">London<\/a><\/strong> to Lille, you could fly from London to Paris. Then all it takes is a cheap train or coach ride after you touch down at the airport. Alternatively, you could <strong><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/france\/2-days-in-paris-itinerary-what-to-do-48-hours\/\" target=\"_blank\">spend a wonderful night in Paris<\/a><\/strong> before taking the trip to your final destination. This works better for some locations than others, but it&#8217;s well worth checking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter wp-image-15289 size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"318\" src=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/paris-cheap-flights-winetraveler.jpg\" alt=\"How To Get Cheap Flights To Paris\" class=\"wp-image-15289\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/paris-cheap-flights-winetraveler.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/paris-cheap-flights-winetraveler-300x191.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/paris-cheap-flights-winetraveler-310x197.jpg 310w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Paris has been one of our most sought-after international destinations following the pandemic.

That doesn&#8217;t mean you have to change your departure date &#8211; simply wait a couple of days to finalize your purchase. Flight prices fluctuate significantly from day to day depending on consumer demand and various other factors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There&#8217;s a common myth that you&#8217;ll get the cheapest flights on a Tuesday or Thursday, although this isn&#8217;t always true. It largely depends on each airline&#8217;s algorithm and it&#8217;s often a lucky draw to see when you get the cheapest flights. With that said, you can often find cheaper tickets during weekdays when demand is generally lower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wine-resources\/wine-accessories-gifts\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>15 Necessary Travel Accessories For Wine Lovers<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><a name=\"packing\"><\/a>Learn How To Pack Light<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many airlines offset the cost of cheap flights by making customers pay extra for their luggage. Even if you only have to pay an extra $20 for each flight, this can still result in you spending $40 more than you need to for each return trip, and $400 more within ten trips. Not to mention that baggage costs are often much more expensive than that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fortunately, there&#8217;s an easy way around this. Simply check your airline&#8217;s website to see their free baggage restrictions and adhere to them. If you can take a small carry-on bag that weighs less than 10kg, grab some packing cubes, pack light clothing, and reduce excess weight from things like electronics. You&#8217;ll save money and won&#8217;t need to worry about waiting for or losing your suitcase when you reach your destination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> <strong><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/u0k4\" target=\"_blank\">Traveling with wine?

Many airlines also charge extra for things like meals, seat selection, travel insurance, and even skipping the queue at the departure line. Although some of these luxuries may be tempting, you&#8217;ll save a lot of money by avoiding them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Plus, there are many easy ways around these costs. Instead of paying to book a seat, wait till the flight departs and ask the flight attendant to move to an empty seat if you end up in the middle aisle. Instead of paying for travel insurance for one trip, get an affordable quote from an external insurance company. Instead of paying for drinks and meals, grab some cheap snacks and fill your water bottle at the airport before departing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><a name=\"flight-search-engines\"><\/a>Use Flight Search Engines<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It can be tricky to use all of these travel hacks, especially if you&#8217;re looking for flights via airline websites. Luckily, you can find many great travel search engines out there. These will help you seamlessly adjust your dates, change your departure and arrival destinations, and even compare prices between different days and months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/flights\" target=\"_blank\">Google Flights<\/a> is particularly useful. This contains many helpful features. For instance, you can make your dates flexible or even search for the cheapest destinations from a specific airport.

However, if you value your cash over your time, and you&#8217;re more of a patient person, this is an easy way to cut back on flight costs. Another perk to layovers is you get to utilize airport lounges if you have a credit card that offers lounge access.
