Cheap flights
Eurapart will not be carrying information on cheap flights in the near future. This information and the links will be removed; as choosing not to travel by air is something we all can do, to ensure that future generations can travel as we do.



Finding a good deal
Although there are plenty of cheap flights out there, getting one is not always easy. Please note the following points when looking for a good deal.
  1. The cheapest tickets are mainly sold on a "First come, First served basis. You will need to look for tickets as soon as they are released. Get on the mailing lists for the airlines.
  2. The cheapest tickets are for Mid Week flights. They are almost non-existent at Holiday periods such as Easter.
  3. Sometimes the Airports used are a lot further from the Cities served than conventional carriers. Up to 100 Kilometres away.

One last point though. A number of budget airlines have gone out of business. To protect yourself pay for your flights with a credit card, this will incur a surcharge but will mean that you stand a good chance of getting refunded by the credit card company if your airline goes into receivership. A number of airlines have failed in the last 12 months so it can happen.
