740123_mason_jar_savings_bankWhen the economy is doing bad we really start to look for any deal we can possibly get.  Whether we want to get away from home for awhile, take a vacation, or visit friends and family, flying isn’t always cheap.  If you’re looking to save money on your next flight, it is possible.  Consider a few of these tips below for doing so.

Plan ahead – Always make sure you plan ahead if you can.  If you book a flight a few weeks or months a head of time, you can easily save hundreds of dollars.  It’s when you wait until the last minute that you start paying the big bucks.

Days – You can also save money depending on what day you fly.  If you choose days like Tuesday or Wednesday or days that aren’t popular for flying, you will save much more money than if you were to fly on a Monday or the weekend. 

Be flexible – If you can, be flexible with the days and times that you want to fly.  These two can make all the difference in the world when it comes to flying.  Not to mention, if you get a flight that stops half way, you can also save money as to where the non-stop flights may be more expensive.

Airlines – Depending on what airline you fly, you can also find cheaper deals.  A great website to check out is kayak.com.  This website will compare all the airlines and find which one is the cheapest to fly.

Coupon codes – Sometimes you may find yourself lucky and find coupon codes online.  If you type in "airline coupon codes", you will find that you can sometimes get a discount when you type in the certain code before you "checkout".

Saving money on anything feels great.  Therefore, if you’re looking to save money on your next trip, make sure you save on the flight so you have some extra spending money for your trip!

We decided to start up a new series here at FindAirlineCards.  Since so many of you are always curious about parking at particular airports, we thought we would make it easier for you, and post where we think are the best places to park at particular airports.  Today, we’re going to take a look at where the best place to park is at LAX or aka the Los Angeles International Airport.  Sadly, the X has no meaning.

The best places to park at LAX

Parking Lots B and C at LAX

Most airports charge an arm, and leg to park at the airport, but you’re going to find that LAX’s parking lots B and C are by far the most popular parking spots, when you browse around online.  The reason that so many local travellers like this spot is because you can get to the airport rather quickly, and the parking lot is relatively safe, since it’s always patrolled by the LAPD.

TheParkingSpot.com

TheParkingSpot has many locations nationwide, and have a great location near LAX.  This location is located off the airport” property, but you may take a free shuttle straight to the terminals.  If you travel a lot for business, they have a great reward program that you can take advantage of, where you can earn free parking spots, and more.

Airpark LAX

Airpark is another traveler favorite based on the location, and the price.  Out of all the parking options that we had looked at, Airpark had one of the cheapest ways of getting there.  For under $6 a day, you can either park on the roof, or if you want covered parking, it’s going to cost you about $8/day.

LAX Parking Center

LAX Parking Center is a little further away than most would like, but the prices are too good to pass up.  Yes, you can get a shuttle, and yes, they do have a rating.  They have a ton of options to choose from, and I would recommend that you hop on their website, and see what they can do for you.

Whether you want to pick someone up at the airport, or you’re curious about a particular flight schedule, there are a few sources that you can check out online that can you out with your hunt.  Unlike the older days where you had to sit back, and call, the Internet makes it a lot easier for you.

FlightExplorer.com - When it comes down to finding an airline flight schedule, FlightExplorer is by far one of the best online.  Here, you can search what you’re looking for, and it’s going to give you the path, and where that plane is scheduled to go, etc.  It’s fairly advanced, and best of all, it’s free!

Once you find the flight that you’re interested in, you can click on the flight number, and either track it in the air, or see what it’s going to depart, or arrive next.

How can you benefit from finding schedules?

The best thing about finding flight schedules is that you’re able to see when this particular route is going to take off.  Since many airlines work the same route, it’s going to give you an idea on when it’s best for you to take off, and purchase your tickets.

If you’re in the other seat, and you’re waiting for someone to land, it’s another great way to find their flight schedule online.  You’ll be able to track their flight in the air, and even know when they arrive.

Try the website above, or maybe you know of a favorite.  In conclusion, it’s usually one of the best ways to go in terms of finding an airline schedule online.

iphone app for travelSo, you’re you have friends, or family coming into town, and you want to know where they are.  Well, with today’s technology, it’s fairly easy to find services like this that can help you track the flights in the air at any given time.

If you carry an iPhone, did you know that there are hundreds of apps out there that are built just for your phone?  If you have one, be sure to check out the following apps:

Airport Status - Shows you the delays at major airports around the world

Gate Maps - Instead of going to the big board looking for your flight, why not use this app?

Flight Tracker – You want to track that flight, right?  This software will do it for you.  Input the flight number, or the destination, and you can track it in the air.

Seat Guide - SeatGuru.com came out with a very cool application that shows you all of the best places to sit on a plane, as well as the worst seats.  If you travel a lot, you may want to look into this app, before you book your next flight.

Aeroguide - Have a flight coming up, but you don’t know what your plane is going to be about?  Simply type in who you’re flying with, as well as the airline model, and it will give you a description, as well as what it looks like.

When it comes to iPhone applications, and the airport, these are the apps that you should consider.  Since I generally don’t fly a lot, I don’t see the need for them, but someone that travels frequently, and considers the airport their second home, you may want to consider these apps.
