Thursday

  • Airlines like Southwest and Jet Blue are using Twitter and Facebook to respond to their customers' complaints and needs. The big airlines aren't doing so well with this. The key to budget travel is to prepare in advance. When it comes along to family trips, globetrotting, well-deserved vacations and/or going to see new locations we have never been before, the truth of cost and budgeting is often in the back of our heads. Planning and expending our travel budget correctly is a consideration for most families. Reducing consuming and expenses, while still delighting your vacation to its fullest, is the key to assured achievement and fiscal responsibility. Your pocketbook and family will thank you! The reasoning behind saving money while touring is simple: Even if your personal funds is highly tight, you can still take a break and enjoy life! Simply put, life is just too short to never step out of the door or leaving the homestead! Also thinking about that while traveling, regardless of whether on a finances or not, even the smallest of things can all add op to a big vacation or travel expenses!. What is the real message here? - Low-cost airlines use Facebook and Twitter to respond to passengers
