A plane flies over a globe in the shape of a brain.

Adventure is a State of Mind

Another way to possibly save money on airfare is to consider flying into an alternative airport near your destination. If you are traveling to Germany, for example, you might initially plan to fly into Berlin, but perhaps it would be more affordable to fly into Frankfurt or Hamburg instead.

If you’re planning your own trip and can rearrange the itinerary, it is often fairly easy to rearrange the days you plan to visit various areas so that you can fly into the more affordable airport. Also, remember that you don’t have to fly in and out of the same airport or even with the same airline. This gives you additional flexibility in searching for affordable plane tickets.
