Question
Hi Markos,

I have a friend who lives in London and she is planning to make a trip to see
me in Miami. I told her that I would help her find good deals for her planned
trip. Can you point me in the right direction? Any information you can provide
me with will be most helpful. Thanks.

Best regards,

Julian

Answer
    Hi Julian, In the old days it was find the bucket shop. That is the travel guy that sells the plane tickets. They still have all over London. But today you can be your own travel agent. Just go to google and search "flight" "london" "miami" "budget". and you will find your cheapest flight. Purchase at least a month and a half ahead. Last minute is hard to find a deal. There are way better deals between europe and east coast U.S. than from U.S. to Asia where I live. And don't be stuck on just Heathrow. Try alternate airports. Sometimes alternate airports are cheaper.

Good Luck,
Mark
