This post is to help premium members get the most out of the premium member area.
I can’t tell you how often I get responses from subscribers along the lines of “Wait – I can search for trips during Spring Break?” or “I’m looking to travel in June and most of your emails are for other months.” Or “I’m only interested in domestic flights.”
If you’re a premium subscriber, my daily emails are just a summary of what I found in the previous day, and having your morning coffee around 8:00 when I send them is a great habit to develop.
BUT… (And this is a big but)
- I have “help” sections that answer 98% of the thousands of questions I’ve already been asked…
- If you’re serious about finding a trip, sometimes the daily email might be too late for the absolutely best deals (that probably only had 2 or 4 seats at that price.) You can join my private Facebook group and get real-time updates as I find trips. (Note that this is not the public group. It’s a private one dedicated just to premium subscribers. You can find the link in any of your “Daily digest” emails.
- Daily emails are just a random smattering of trips with no rhyme or reason other than representing the best deals I found from your area the day prior. If you get to know the ins and out of the website, you’ll find trips you’re looking for a lot faster, and a lot more efficiently.
- Looking over spring break? There’s a link for that. (Under Where > When kids are out of school > Spring Break)
- Looking in June? There’s a link for that. (Where > By Month > June)
- Looking for a warm beach? There’s a link for that (Where > Beaches>)
- Tired of the local Chinese/Vietnamese/Thai takeout joints? (Where > Asia)
- Looking for extended trips? (How Long > 14+ days)
- You get the idea
- Here is a helpful video showing you how to interpret every trip I post to the site.
- Here is a helpful video showing you how to navigate the website itself.
I have 57 categories to organize the hundreds of trips I’ve found. Even if some of those fares are gone, you’ll get an idea of the kinds of prices you can expect me to find for you in the future.
