When I first started travelling, the only thing I really cared about was getting from A to B and back again for less.
That typically meant picking a random destination I hadn’t been to yet, hitting up Skyscanner for the cheapest deal on that route, and flying at any hour to save €50 that I inevitably spent at the airport anyway because of course I didn’t have lounge access.
Nowadays, trip planning looks very, very different. I rarely book return flights, so my choice of destination often comes down to where I’m flying after; I actually care about things like seat pitch, and I have strong opinions on which airlines have the best in-flight dining (and that can guide who I fly with, and therefore where I fly, too).
If you’re new to this wonderful world, here are a few of my favourite websites for frequent flyers.
