  • ❤ your Google Flight tips. Prior to the pandemic, I traveled 48 out of 52 weeks in a year. I also planned all of our leisure travel, so I thought I knew a lot about booking flights for the best value for biz or economy. Your advice was so priceless that I had to subscribe.
  • Solid tips using many options, I agree with booking with airline in case stuff happens.
  • You are amazing Nora. The effort you put into your videos deserves a million subs.
  • Can confirm: As a male I typically don't care for BB's, but my favorite under garments are my base layer merino wool leggings for snowboarding. If they have merino wool boxer-briefs I would probably wear those on the daily. They're also great for running/jogging which can prevent chaffing between the male bits and legs. Not surprised he's a fan!
  • @vtcs1963
    But don’t forget, if you live west of NYC (in NJ) yes, it’s always cheaper to fly from JFK but it also costs $100 to GET to JFK (and another $100 back, not to mention the additional time spent getting there). I refuse to fly out of JFK. It’s always easily worth the extra $100 or so to fly out of Newark.
  • @kovie9162
    Another feature that I wish these apps had is alerts about a given destination that might make you reconsider your plans in terms of dates or destinations, that might not occur to you, like a national holiday that shuts everything down when you're there, popular sights being closed for repairs or renovations, a major sporting event that will make hotel rooms expensive and transit crowded, or political unrest and the like. I.e. a comprehensive vacation planner and not just separate flight, hotel and car rental reservation pages.
  • @adamromo7307
    Not a bad video Nora. You should mention the date graph too, that is INCREDIBLY helpful for finessing dates for a cheaper trip as long as you're not too picky on what date you leave and come back on -good for planning out trips far not in the near future
  • Thanks for the tips. I've never used this Google tool before. Amazing. I really liked the options available to plan a trip to an open destination and find deals to take advantage of.
  • @evagalova
    I knew you were in Bulgaria!!!!!! The painting behind you! I hope you are enjoying your stay there!!!!
  • @mrlogboy
    Great…….. Al my flight out of the bag. Every single one you mention is what I’ve been doing and helping family and friends get good deals.. guess they won’t need me as much lol
  • Nora! Yet another helpful video! Thanks for all the info you provide.
  • @Mr.DJones
    Thank you for your time and posting. Great information. Off to Vietnam in three months. :) I'll be deselecting all US carriers for the flight from the West Coast of the US to VN. Very interesting mosaic on the wall behind you. Have a great time in Bulgaria.
  • @Google
    Great video, thanks for sharing these tips
  • @temprmj1
    it's really cool how the picture behind you blends into the wall design
  • @mjbalmmac1588
    Very timely. I have been struggling trying research options to get to an area
  • @hangseng9364
    Thank you for the video! I've used Google flight pretty often but still could learn couple things. The funny thing is I was search for ticket to go to Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam, and you were pretty much doing the same thing. I hope you could make the trip to Vietnam and did have good time there.😀
  • I insist on an absolute minimum layover time of 4 hours just in case of delays, I would rather have to kill time at an airport waiting for a connecting flight than risk being late for it.
  • @mbwelsh65
    Thank you, I just learned so much. I liked the feature to add multiple airports to the search.
