Remember this scene from Karate kid?
Walk right side road – Safe.
Walk left side road – Safe.
Walk middle of road – sooner or later… Squish like grape.
Want to find a pretty good deal every once in a while? Stick to the right side of the road & go to kayak.com or Google Flights. Sometimes you’ll get lucky on the price you’ll pay and most times you won’t. But… you will certainly find a flight to exactly where you want to go.
Want to find an exceptional deal every single time you travel? Cross all the way over to the left side of the road.
My family and I travel exclusively on the left side of the road and we only spend about 10% of what most people spend traveling the traditional way. Thousands of JGOOT subscribers do the same, and you can too… But you have to stick to the left side of the road (read: You have to learn “The JGOOT Way” of travel.)
There are 3 simple rules to The JGOOT Way and they’re very simple.
- Look every day – whether you’re planning a trip or not, and schedule trips around good exceptional deals when you find them. (The point hedging 101 section of our book will show you how to do this over your morning coffee.)
- Plan on being flexible on when/where you want to go to maximize savings.
- You MUST have a backup plan for the times when you can’t apply rules #1 (Because there will always be trips where you 1) don’t have time to plan ahead, and 2) don’t have flexibility on when/where you want to go. The point hedging 201 & 301 section of the book cover that.
Don’t want to follow all 3 of those rules?
Sooner or later… Squish like grape.
