When booking flights, it’s best to sign up to airline email lists to make use of deals and sales.
Wednesday tends to be the cheapest day of the week to fly and it’s best to use services such as Webjet to compare fares when booking.
Rather than buying overpriced food at the airport, Téa ensures she always packs snacks, food and a filled water bottle in her carry-on luggage.
She also avoids spending money on check-in luggage to save both time and money at the airport.
Hotel and accommodation prices can also be compared using multiple platforms.
‘Check the actual hotel website as they sometimes offer special deals/discounts,’ Téa wrote.
When travelling overseas, travel cards often have little to no fees to use compared to credit cards, which often charge foreign exchange fees.

When at your destination, opt to explore free tourist attractions first before choosing paid activities.
Always carrying a water bottle in your backpack or bag can save you money when out and about.
Rather than renting a car or using services such as Uber, opt to use public transport.
