Visit More Countries Without Spending More Money

January 2, 2018 By kamila Leave a Comment

You may not have realized it but every time you take a flight and there are stopovers you can extend your trip by a few days and enjoy the stopovers; for either nothing or just a little extra money.

In fact, you can go one step further and enjoy the same destination and the stopovers for less if you are prepared to book individual flights yourself!

The first step is to consider how you usually book your flights. Whether you go to an airline or an online firm you will give them your starting point and the final destination and they will give you a price. Stopovers are simply an inconvenience on the way.

Stopovers are essential as the plane has to refuel and pilots might need to be replaced.

The problem is that you accept this for what it is and waste hours in the airport waiting for your next flight. But, if you’re in a city that you’d love to visit there is a way.

Turn Your Layover Into A Stopover

Look up your flight online with several airlines and you will quickly see that most of them offer a layover in the same place. If you like the look of the layover city then it’s time to turn it into a stopover.

Step one is simple, ask the airline if you can extend your layover and stay for a couple of days. Many airlines will allow you to do this for free and some will even give you a free hotel! In general, this approach only works if you are booking a round trip with them.

It really is this simple!

To recap, you need to look online at the different airlines for the destination you need to go to and then contact the one which has a layover in a place you would like to visit.

Ask them about extending the layover to create stopovers; this is so you can enjoy a few days in the city. It will be free or for a negligible charge.

You can actually do this for every layover on your journey! Suddenly your weekend business trip to London has become a three week trip around Europe!

It is important to note that you will have to call the airline in order to find out if they offer the stopovers facility and the cost of it. This is not something you can do online.

There are many airlines which offer this facility, including Iceland Air, Emirates (Dubai), Turkish Airlines (Istanbul). All you need to do is ask and then enjoy!
