A2 #pttravel I once was able to take advantage of one of those computer glitches that gives you cheap air fares. I paid $100 RT to NYC & had a lot lined up to do including Cal Ripken’s last @MLB game. What happened? 9/11 happened about 2 weeks before I was supposed to go.

replying to @vickyinglis13 @vickyinglis13 @orcadianabroad @kate_frankie #pttravel I saw aurora in Scotland once. I was riding a motor bike, it was freezing cold and one o'clock in the morning. I didn't have a camera on me, anyway.

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A2: When Megabus started the route between London and Paris, I managed to go for £10 return. (Whether this meets other people's criteria for "good value" is another matter as it was an overnight bus! 🤣) #PTTravel

replying to @orcadianabroad @orcadianabroad @kate_frankie Overnight travel is fab, so long as you're able to get comfy in odd conditions. Saves a night of accommodation costs and let's you maximise time on other things #PTTravel

replying to @orcadianabroad @orcadianabroad @kate_frankie #pttravel It does! I once got a berth to Inverness on the 'Caledonian Sleeper' for £20. They were offering a limited number of berths at this price on certain days 'because the train's going up there anyway'.

A3 Brussels, Malta, Rome and India have been good value in different ways. Shoulder season in Europe can be cheaper/more options. Accommodation and food can be really good value in some places too

replying to @vickyinglis13 @vickyinglis13 @kate_frankie Haha well it wasn't a proper overnight bus like some of the ones I've taken. This was just a bog standard bus! But I became immune to those from my overnight London - Aberdeen journeys (before easyJet finally picked up the route). #PTTravel

A4 All of them! We tend to book every element individually and direct these days…unless there is a serious deal to be had by packaging up. #PTTravel

A4 #pttravel Hotel, air & car rental if needed are going to be your big three expenses. Those are going to be where I try to get the best values.
