replying to @united @united A8 Travel in the middle of the week, buy a package deal, rent an apartment instead of a hotel, buy a city pass, make dinners instead of restaurants. #TravelSkills

replying to @JohnnyJet @JohnnyJet A7: Agh, the dreaded summer crowds. We recommend traveling in late August, when most kids are back in school. Also, when visiting attractions, be sure to arrive extra early, or right before closing time. #travelskills

@travelskills A7: The best way to survive summer crowds is to avoid them by waking up early!
I wake up before dawn so I can explore the city as soon as it’s light. Because of that, I’ve had cities all to myself like Amsterdam, Heidelberg, and Brugge 🇩🇪🇳🇱🇧🇪#travelskills #MyUnitedJourney

replying to @united @united TIP Instead of going out to expensive meals, rent an apartment and cook at “home.” When going out, dine at lunch (it’s less expensive than dinner) and just order a main dish. No appetizer. #TravelSkills

A8 Booking well in advance can help save money during peak season, but really, I try to avoid the peak season of whatever destination I'm visiting. I'd much rather deal with cooler weather than sweaty crowds. https://t.co/Mfd0W8wuca #TravelSkills

How to avoid summer crowds: Go to less popular destinations. Travel the week right before "high season" or week after. If you want to go on a tour or to a place like Disneyland, go early in the morning so you finish up when everyone else is just getting started #TravelSkills

replying to @HideawayReport @HideawayReport Love going off the beaten path! Will definitely look into Bratislava #travelskills

A7: Check out the more popular tourist hotspots at opening time. Be the first in line! Plan late dinners to avoid busy restaurants. Embrace quick, easy & cheap street food dining for lunch. And budget extra time for everything - especially the whole travel process. #travelskills https://t.co/Sz0NTPXsgP

A8: Take advantage of your vacation days and travel midweek instead of booking all of your flights Friday to Sunday. You can save a lot of money on hotels and transportation Wednesday to Saturday, if you’re willing to take the extra days off. - @matthewslyndsey #travelskills

replying to @AFARmedia Besides, you're probably not taking enough vacation days anyway. #travelskills https://t.co/FVY33oD0jq

replying to @united @united True! Also do not forget to use the ports to charge your devices on the plane! I wish every plane had a place to charge! #TravelSkills

replying to @travelskills
@travelskills A8: the easiest way to do this is by cutting down on food expenses!
I eat takeaway, local meals so I don’t have to tip or pay a service fee, like when I have the Krokets at a self-serve place in #Amsterdam Cheap and quick! 😋🍴

replying to @cjmcginnis @cjmcginnis A8 Don't travel during peak travel season. The last time I did was 2009 to Maui for the 4th of July and I flew on points and did a timeshare exchange. Only way I could justify going. #TravelSkills
thehipmunk
replying to @travelskills @travelskills A8 Knowing when to buy airfare. For instance, travelers should purchase flights for Labor Day weekend travel during the first week of July. Doing so can save them up to 25% off the median booking price. #TravelSkills

A8. Best way to save money during peak travel season: book last minute hotels and fares. It can be stressful if you're a big time planner, but that's how I get great deals. By last minute I mean week of - or day before. #TravelSkills
