Exclusive Online Event:
Dirt Cheap Airfares |
We all love a great deal on flights, and there are some seriously dirt cheap airfares out there... if you know where to find them. In recent years we've seen airfares to Los Angeles for as low as $300 return, and to Europe for just $600 return - on full service airlines. Within Australia, flights can often be booked for as low as $9!
The very cheapest flights are often published in error. Mistake fares, as they're known, make it possible to travel to the other side of the world for just a few hundred dollars!
In its upcoming webinar, Frequent Flyer Solutions will reveal the secrets to flying for as little as possible. The webinar will cover a variety of methods for finding cheap airfares. But it will have a particular focus on mistake fares, equipping you with the knowledge to grab a serious bargain on your next flights.
Join us as we delve into the world of "Dirt Cheap Airfares" at 8pm (AEDT) on Wednesday 24 January.
