Traveling to the US won’t be that heavy to your pocket as now you’ll have to spill just $10. Yes you’ve read it right! Two US airlines - a new busline and a new cruiseline - are using unbelievable rates as a marketing tool allowing passengers to buy tickets at rock-bottom prices.
Skybus is a new airline based in Columbus, Ohio that promises to sell 10 seats on each of its flights for $10. Including Burbank Los Angeles and Bellingham, Washington, the carrier flies to 11 airports around the country. You’ll have to pay taxes and fees so, your total flight cost is around $16. Don’t expect free food and beverages, you’ll have to pay for that too. Checking luggage charges are $5 per piece for the first two and $50 for the third bag. Only online booking facility is available and no bookings are done over the phone.
Spirit Airlines, a low-fare carrier, recently introduced a special program called the $9 Fare Club. Membership costs $9 for a three-month trial and $30 per year thereafter. Special deals are e-mailed to the members once in six weeks. The very best deals tend to be offered on midweek, off-peak flights, rarely with last-minute departures. No doubt, members are the most benefited however, even if you are not a member, you can sometimes find sale flights for as little as $29 each way.
If you still feel that $10 is wallet-straining, then you can opt for a $1 Megabus trip. Megabus is presently serving 14 cities. If you wish to score the very best price, advance booking is preferable. Online booking can be done and you need to pay 50 cents extra for reserving a seat. Just shell $1 extra and you can get the booking done over the phone. More Info
Easycruise is a two-ship cruiseline that is currently operating voyages among the Greek islands and on European rivers. It’s also a good choice, if you wish to travel without breaking into the banks. Of course, food and drinks on board cost extra. More Info
