When it comes to affordable travel, flight deals are life! If you follow me on Instagram you know I post flight deals on my IG stories. From the infamous $187 RT flight from JFK to Dubai in 2014 to the $580 RT flight deal I caught to Australia in 2016 there is no reason to spend thousands of dollars on flying to your dream destination. The key to securing a flight deal is to be flexible with your dates, destinations, and even your arriving and departing airports. If you can do that you can save a ton of money, making travel a lot more affordable. Here are the best websites to find flight deals.
