Travel Resources

Airfare

For more information on how to find a cheap flight, read this article with all my tips.

Skyscanner

This is my all-time favorite flight search engine. It always seems to find the best deals, and its calendar view lets you see which days are cheapest to fly. I like it because it searches the small booking sites no one else does. Start all your flight searches here.

Going

Going (formerly Scott’s Cheap Flights) finds incredible flight deals and sends them directly to your inbox. If you’re flexible with your dates and destinations, you can score some amazing deals and save hundreds of dollars in the process!

Momondo

This great website searches a lot of different airlines, including many of the budget carriers that larger sites miss. While I always start with Skyscanner, I’ll also check this site too as a way to compare prices.

Google Flights

Google Flights lets you enter your departure airport and see flights all over the world on a map so you can determine where the cheapest destination is. It’s a good search engine to get a sense of routes, connections, and fares.

Accommodation

HostelWorld

This is the best hostel-accommodation site out there, with the largest inventory, best search interface, and highest availability. I use it for all my hostel bookings. And, since it bought its competitor Hostelbookers, it really is the only game in town.

Booking.com

Booking.com probably has the widest selection of budget accommodation in the world (it is especially good for listings in developing countries). In our research, it consistently found the cheapest rooms.

Agoda

This website should be your primary accommodation website for guesthouses and hotels in Asia. It has the most robust inventory and offers the best rates. When I travel around Asia, I always use it.

Couchsurfing

This website allows you to stay on people’s couches or spare rooms for free. It’s a wonderful way to save money while also meeting locals. Even if you don’t want to stay with someone, you can always find incredibly fun meet-ups through the app.
