International fares are probably cheaper than you think

Once in a while I like to mention that there are a few travel sites that are able to get cheaper international tickets than all the famous ones, and this is one of those times: Get up to 40% Off International Flights at Lessno

This site, LessNo, claims that they can save you up to 40% off, and in a way that’s a bit deceptive because they are probably referring to discounts off peak season airfares, but the reality is that they can almost always save you 5 to 10% off what you’ll be quoted from one of the major travel sites. That might not sound like much, but with the price of international flights being what they are, this can save you $100 per ticket pretty easily. Their selection seems to be just a bit limited, so it doesn’t always work, but when you are shopping for one of these flights it’s always worth a look.

It had been really depressing trying to find deals over the last couple months, because for Americans the flights were so expensive that even paying top dollar for one of the NYC hotels made for a cheaper vacation. But now flights are getting cheaper and the US dollar is gaining ground again, so flying across the Atlantic doesn’t automatically mean you’ll have to mortgage the house in order to afford it, not that you could get another mortgage for your house anyway, if you know what I mean.
