A few other tips: use incognito mode to search for flights. You'll start getting higher rates if your cookies show you looking for flights

Also the websites check what device your accessing from. Apple devices will have higher priced than PCS. The most expensive will be on iPads and the cheapest are on android phones.

I'll add a tip. Don't get annihilated drunk while overseas.

American kid died his first night in Rome, got into a situation where he was arguing with people, etc and was probably murdered.

My wife had a friend she met in Prague go to Germany, get drunk and lost his friend. They ended up finding him dead in the river.

Just a PSA


I will say this is smart. I got pretty ripped in Dublin early in the day. Left and went home by 4:30. The driver brought me to the wrong hotel. That could have been a bad situation had I been another drink or two in.

Got to stay alert. I also never went out without a group at night. Not that I'm some scared woman, but I'm a foreigner that doesn't the areas very well.

Had a guy who sold drugs in London invite me to a "party" across town at about 1:30AM one night. Gave it a hard pass. Probably was going to get robbed and killed.
