Summer is approaching which means that Business Class flights and hotel prices will be soaring through the roof. Whether you are looking forward to traveling for business or for pleasure; alone or with a family, planning ahead for travel on a budget will be a sure way to save your hard earned money. Here’s our roundup of tips that will save you time and money on your next trip:

1. Save on Business Class Airfare

The flight costs can add up fast, especially when traveling with a family. To help you with the booking process in the most cost-efficient way, contact one of our representatives. To save the most money on your Business Class flight, it is important to be flexible with your dates. Leaving a day or two earlier or later may not make a difference in your schedule, but it sure might in your bank account. Also, let us know about the budget for your flights. This will ensure proper accommodations in regards to your airline preferences.

2. Keep Hotel Prices Low

As noted earlier, summer months are peak travel times and therefore the most expensive. To save money on your hotels, it is recommended to make reservations 3-5 months in advance. This planning-ahead alone will save you 23 percent, as opposed to booking right before your trip. In addition, TripAdvisor came up with the “BestTimeToBook” list, which includes the best times to secure your hotel rooms in summer, with common destinations in mind.

3. When in Rome, Do As The Romans Do

If your company is covering your business trip lavish luncheons, it’s one thing.  But if you’re traveling with a family, the food and leisure expenses can add up fast. To help you save money, do your research ahead of time. Search for markets and grocery stores where the locals go to. Instead of dining out, pack sandwiches and snacks to keep you full throughout the day. Avoid touristy shops and search for markets where you can bring souvenirs back home for much cheaper prices.

We hope that these saving tips will come of use on your next Business Class trip.
