    Hi... thanks for the info.
    You say to check the prices on Google Flights and then book directly on the airline websites however I found the airline website prices were more than double the prices indicated on Google Flights. How do you get the cheaper prices listed on Google Flights without using the cheaper (potentially shonky!) websites listed at the bottom of their page?

      Hey there, my video about the best way to book flights is a good resource on this topic. If it’s a small difference I’d generally pay more to book direct.

    I live in Perth, Australia and fly to Europe once a year over Xmas. It’s expensive as there is limited competition, I fly Qatar airways (same price as other airlines); economy is around $2.5-$3k and business is 9-10k.
    It never used to be this expensive, I used to fly Qatar business for $6k and could stomach the cost.
    After some playing around on google flights, I now bookend my Europe trip out of Bali. I book Bali to Copenhagen, through Finnair (through codeshare you actually fly Qatar with Qsuites) and my flights were $3800.

    Great advice! Thank you! If you book a mixture of Business and Economy on one journey…pay attention to baggage allowances as you may not be able to take advantage of the larger allowances for business class if part of the journey is in economy.

      Just taking a look on google flights, regardless of which location I choose to travel, prices are more than if I were to travel next month. For example, I'm looking at 1 year+ in advance and tickets are costing $5000 for business and only $4000 if I were to book the flight for next month. Which method are you using to get cheap prices on far-future flights?

      to be fair he didn't claim to be revolutionary. This is a succinct video with some good solid common sense tips and some tricks like google flight alerts and using miles. Many people are not nearly aware of these or the other "common sense" options. Frequent fliers may not learn a huge amount from this video, but most people are not frequent fliers so having a one stop shop video like this for the majority of people may actually seem "revolutionary". Perspective is important.

      Can’t comment on other TH-cam channels, but my videos are based on a lifetime of travel combined with experience in the industry. That said, Phillipine Airlines isn’t the best in terms of upgrade offers or business product in general - any alliance-member flying that route would likely have a better product to offer and possibly better upgrade prices.
