Ok, so you sign up for let’s say,http://www.airfaresinternationalcheap.com and you have an American Express card that you use to buy your tickets and pay for your excursions. This is phase one and two of your way to cheap airfare. Now by having both of those elements working for you, you are able to earn double the points and keep things organized for the accountant at the end of the year. It is important to remember to use your card to buy your tickets online as opposed to a live agent on the phone. The online method is always better when searching for cheap airfares and getting maximum points which ultimately convert to free tickets…the ultimate airfare discount.
Next on the list is a little trick I learned from Austin Viking at http://www.lowestairfares.tv, which I use sometimes when I’m not so pressed for time. I start by purchasing a ticket on a flight that is almost always full. I base my decision on day of the week and time of flight. I usually book my flights on Monday and Friday. Eight times out of ten, the flight is overbooked and they offer someone willing to give up a seat a free ticket, or three hundred dollars towards a future flight. This is always a good move when looking for the lowest airfares.
Next step on the road to acquiring the lowest airfares is booking two weeks or more in advance. That is such common knowledge that I almost left it out but for those of you who didn’t know, well now you know. Last but not least on my list is always and I mean always search for your cheapest airfares by examining fares to and from nearby airports. In a city like Houston or Dallas, where there are multiple airports minutes from each other, you can really get a drastic price difference. Sure, you may find that to get the cheap airfare you need to fly a different airline, because your favorite airline doesn’t fly to the other airport. I say, if cost isn’t an object, don’t worry about it, but if you are a penny pinching, cheap airfares nut like me then always go for the cheaper flights at the alternate airport.
More to come in my next post!…

Amazon Apart Hotel. Stayed a weekend there in an apartment for 50 bucks a night. I felt the place has everything you may need in Iquitos. It doesn’t have the carpets or aircon lobby as the Dorado (or the risk of being robbed from your safe either), but has a great, well functioning aircon in the apartment ( large and well appointed) an, even more important, great staff, ready for every need. The breakfast was simple but well done. They arranged a very personalized tour in the nearby market of Belen, and the jungle of Rio Nanay, guided by a Belen dweller, Raul. He is a perfect local guide, knows every detail and is respected by the market and jungle people. We felt very safe with him. The downside is that the Boras tribe is clearly a theatrical farce, probably was interesting a decade ago, now is very clearly boring and fake. In any case not interesting.
A great recommendation of the Hotel ownwer was Al frio y al fuego, a fantastic floating reataurant. Could perfectly stay a whole day there. Even it is expensive for Iquitos standards, a lunch or dinner will cost less than 20 dollars per person. And the place is unbelievable.
