🤑 FINDING YOU CHEAP FLIGHTS
Dreaming of a getaway but your wallet’s giving you side-eye? We get it. Life’s expensive, but travel doesn’t have to be. That’s where we come in - your unofficial flight-hunting sidekick. We’re not tied to any airline, which means we’re free to chase down the best deals and share them with you, no strings attached.

Whether you’re craving sun, snow, or just a change of scenery, we’re here to help you stretch those well-earned pennies into plane tickets.

👍 WHAT WE LOOK FOR..
We look for one night to five night stay holidays so you can get away with just hand luggage to save you money on the big fees of hold luggage. We also look for the better flight times as much as possible.

🔥 REAL-TIME FLIGHT DEALS
We post live prices as we spot them - no fluff, no delay. But here’s the catch: flight prices can vanish faster than your holiday snacks. They’re subject to change or sell out at any moment, so keep checking in. We update weekly to keep the deals fresh and your travel dreams alive.

💡 TIPS FOR SAVING MONEY AT THE AIRPORT.

🥛 Water or squash? Bring an empty bottle to the airport and fill it with free water at the water stations, if you don't like plain water you can take a mini concentration juice that you can add to give you flavour also as it's small you can fit it easily in your hand luggage. You can buy these for around £1.25 from Aldi. Self catering?  This comes in handy while your on holiday to add to your bottles of water, while saving you money at the same time.

🥛 Aldi mini concentrated squash you can fit in your hand luggage (66ml) you can add this to your water if you like flavour


🎒 Try to travel light: Try looking at a few days away where you can take just your hand luggage. Hold baggage can add to the expense. We've found Jet2 to be the best for hand luggage. Hand luggage can weigh no more than 10kg and can be no larger than 56cm x 45cm x 25cm (including wheels and handles). You can take another small personal item such as a bum bag or laptop as long as it fits under your seat (40cm x 30cm x 15cm).
We found an amazing bag on Amazon, you can fit so much in it and is perfect for Jet2 flights.
😍 The bag on the right is my personal bag I could take on Jet2 along with the Rucksack on the left from Amazon - highly recommended for Jet2 flights


Click below to view the Rucksack - the best one I've ever brought with so many compartments and space. As a women travelling this was brilliant, I could get away for five nights with this bag without having to buy hold luggage.

😍 This Rucksack opens up like a suitcase, meaning you can get more items into it.


💳 Boots Advantage Card: Do you have a Boots Advantage points card? If you do and you have enough points you can get a meal deal for free using your points. A meal deal at Luton Airport costs around £5.00. You can get a drink, sandwich/salad/wrap and a snack like a chocolate bar, crisps, fruit. I like to save my meal deal for a little picnic for in the plane. You can also get essentials like toothpaste, deodorant etc with your Boots Advantage Card.

🤑 Boots Avantage Points save space you money on meal deals or essentials you want to take with you (as long as you have enough points?




☕️ Hot drink sachets:  You could take all in one coffee sachets/hot chocolate and ask for a cup of hot water on the plane, just ask nicely, please note they may not be able to offer you hot water all the time as they have a limited amount of supply. If you can get away with it you can save £3 - £4. All in one coffee sachets from Home Bargains only cost around £1.00 for 10. Not only that but if you go self catering these sachets will come in handy.

☕️ Drink sachets for either on the plane or take if you go self catering


🥪 Bring snacks: If you have enough room, remember you can bring your own snacks, crisps, sandwiches, sausage rolls. This came in so handy as we were stuck on the plane for 2 hours once before it took off and you could see people eyeing us up while we were munching away, and yes of course offered hand outs, no one fancied my cheese and onion rolls.

🛍 Duty Free: If your buying something from duty free and you get a bag (be cheeky and ask for the larger one) this acts like an extra bag where you can cram other bits and take on the plane with you.

🧣 Keep your clothes on:
Heading out from the lovely Luton weather I use my sarong as my scarf. For one it keeps me warm and secondly it saves space in my hand luggage, thirdly it acts as a blanket in the plane when the hubby is blasting out the air conditioning.

Where your sarong as your scarf to save space in your hand luggage 😁
