]]> Low-cost airlines can be a godsend for travelers on a tight budget, but they’re not always the amazing money-saver you’re seeking. In certain situations, booking a flight on a low-budget airline isn’t the best idea – and that happens to be the case with these three scenarios.

Expensive Baggage Fees

One of the biggest downsides of traveling with budget airlines are their pricy baggage fees. Even if you manage to find ultra-cheap tickets, you’ll have to pay extra to bring baggage on board – even a carry-on – and the cost of added luggage can sometimes outweigh the initial savings of a cheap ticket.

Going the Distance

Low-cost airlines are a great choice when your flight is two to three hours long, but things can get tricky when you’re on a long-haul journey. Limited legroom and the lack of onboard amenities will compromise your comfort, so it’s best to avoid budget airlines when you’re going the distance, especially if your trip involves layovers.

Price Compare

Low-cost flights often include many hidden expenses – and we’re not just talking about baggage. From cancelation fees, seat selection, and transportation to the airport, take all the hidden expenses into account, and then compare the ticket prices between budget and regular carriers before making the final verdict.

]]> For most travelers, flying with budget airlines comes as a last resort. Sure, the tickets are cheap, but everything else is expensive, and the experience isn’t something to write home about. But don’t write off budget airlines so easily. You only need to follow these tips to make your budget airline experience much better.

Book a Return Flight Straight Away

Ticket prices at budget airlines are known to fluctuate based on demand and other factors. One day, they can be cheap, and another, out of your price range. This is why you should always book a return flight straight away. You will avoid having to pay more or missing out on a seat on your desired flight.

Pay Attention to Extra Costs

The way budget airlines make up for their low prices is by charging everything else extra. This can include anything from checking in and choosing your own seat to carrying additional luggage. Make sure to always check for extra costs before finalizing your booking. Also, always check in online, which is free, and let the airline pick out a seat for you.

Know Where You’re Landing

Budget airlines usually operate from smaller airports that can sometimes be hours away from your intended destination. Make sure to know where you’re landing and figure out how to get where you need to be. Also, take into consideration whether the cost of a train or bus ticket will keep your flight “cheap” or not.

Arrive Ahead of Time

Boarding flights operated by budget airlines can often get hectic, and going through security and passport control can take a lot of time. Make sure to arrive even earlier at the airport than you used to in order to avoid inconvenience.

]]> Budget airlines allow you to explore the world at a low price tag, but you should tread lightly when booking flights with them. Your flight won’t be so cheap if you end up paying a bunch of extra fees, but you can avoid additional costs by not making these common mistakes.

Late Check-In

Always check in before reaching the airport when flying with low-cost airlines. Checking in on the spot is an option, but these companies usually charge extra if you’re checking in at the airport—plus you’ll be wasting unnecessary time in the check-in queue.

Baggage Fees

Baggage fees will significantly increase the cost of your ticket. If traveling light isn’t an option, research all the possible options for checked-in luggage and see which one works best for you. Also make sure that your suitcase fits the required size, and make payment online because it can be more expensive on the spot.

Don’t Pick Your Seat

Unless you’re flying with friends and family and you want to sit together, don’t be too picky about your seat. Low-budget airlines charge extra for seat allocation, and this is usually a waste of money when it comes to short flights.

]]> There’s nothing better than getting a good airline deal to fly around and explore new places. Southeast Asia is a region that has plenty of countries to explore and a host of budget airlines that allow you to do so for a low price.

AirAsia

AirAsia is a Malaysian carrier that has consistently won awards throughout the past decade as one of the world’s best budget airlines. Flying to destinations in China, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Thailand, among other countries, this airline can be considered the Ryanair of Southeast Asia.

]]> The emergence of budget airlines in the 21st century has been one of the biggest game-changers in travel throughout the world. Before, regular air travel was largely expensive and limited to only a subset of the population, but now, it’s easier than ever to explore without breaking the bank.

With that being said, budget airlines do have strategies for making money that aren’t included in the basic fare for a ticket. Follow these tips to ensure that you don’t accidentally end up spending too much money.

Read the Fine Print

Budget airlines will do their best to “sneak in” charges that you might not see unless you take the time to read the fine print when buying your ticket. Be sure to do so in order to understand things such as luggage allowances and ticket policies.

Don’t Worry About Your Seat

Unfortunately in order to sit with those that you may be traveling with on a budget airline or to sit in an aisle or a window seat, you will have to pay extra money. My recommendation is to just accept the seat that is automatically assigned to you in order not to drive up your bill.

Take Your Own Food and Drink

Traditional airlines usually offer up at least a drink and a snack to travelers on their flights, but that isn’t the case for budget airlines. Instead of paying exorbitant amounts to buy food or a drink onboard, why not just bring your own? Bring them from home or buy them at the airport before boarding.

While budget airlines are more popular and commonly-used in other continents like Europe and Asia, it’s totally possible to get around the Land Down Under without breaking the bank.

Let’s take a look at the two main budget options in the world of Australian aviation.

Jetstar Airways

Jetstar Airways is owned and operated by Australian carrier Qantas, offering a cheaper, low-frills version of their service. This company offers flights to 19 Australian airports and 15 international airports, including ones in Hawaii, New Zealand, Japan, and Southeast Asia. It’s a great option for discovering Australia itself as well as a base for discovering other places.

Tigerair Australia

Tigerair Australia, founded in 2007 and a pioneer in budget flying in the continent, operates a fleet of 14 mid-sized jets that provide flights exclusively in Australia at the present time. From Perth to Darwin to Sydney, you can use this airline to get anywhere you need to go to Australia without breaking the bank.

]]> One of the countries that has really burst onto the budget airline scene in recent years is South Africa. This continental power has seen the birth and growth of several discount flight options over the past decade, making it easier than ever to move about the country and Africa as a whole.

Are you looking to book a discount flight into, out of, or within South Africa? Check out these great options.

Mango

Mango, a subsidiary of South African Airways, was a pioneer in African low-cost flights when it was founded in 2006. It now serves a range of South African destinations like Bloemfontein, Cape Town, and Durban, and also provides flights to international cities like Zanzibar.

Kulula.com

No, this isn’t a website; it’s actually an airline! Johannesburg is the host city of Kulula.com, a newer player in South African budget flights. This company is perfect for getting you from the country’s capital to lesser-known destinations around the country such as East London, George, and Port Elizabeth.

FastJet

FastJet is a newer airline, with eventual plans to serve as a Pan-African choice for budget flights. However, it currently focuses on Zimbabwe and South Africa, offering travelers a low-cost option for travel between these two important regional countries.

]]> When you think of places to fly on low-cost airlines, Australia might not be the first place that pops into your mind. While budget airlines are more popular and commonly-used in other continents like Europe and Asia, it’s totally possible to get around the Land Down Under without breaking the bank.

Jetstar Airways

Jetstar Airways is owned and operated by Australian carrier Qantas, offering a cheaper, low-frills version of their service. This company offers flights to 19 Australian airports and 15 international airports, including ones in Hawaii, New Zealand, Japan, and Southeast Asia.

From Perth to Darwin to Sydney, you can use this airline to get anywhere you need to go to Australia without breaking the bank.

Are you looking to book a discount flight into, out of, or within South Africa? Check out these great options.

Mango

Mango, a subsidiary of South African Airways, was a pioneer in African low-cost flights when it was founded in 2006. It now serves a range of South African destinations like Bloemfontein, Cape Town, and Durban, and also provides flights to international cities like Zanzibar.

Kulula.com

No, this isn’t a website; it’s actually an airline! Johannesburg is the host city of Kulula.com, a newer player in South African budget flights. This company is perfect for getting you from the country’s capital to lesser-known destinations around the country such as East London, George, and Port Elizabeth.

FastJet

FastJet is a newer airline, with eventual plans to serve as a Pan-African choice for budget flights. However, it currently focuses on Zimbabwe and South Africa, offering travelers a low-cost option for travel between these two important regional countries.
