Some Tips To Find Your Flight

From Europe, the cheapest flights are from Madrid and nothing prevents you from creating your own itinerary from your city. Obviously, we recommend flight comparators and online booking sites such as Momondo, Opodo, Edreams.
Much cheaper than physical tourism agencies and airlines. Prices on these sites may vary, only by playing on the change of a date of your trip. To avoid algorithms (automatic price reinforcement), we recommend that you search for your flight from the same ID address, and finally, when you find an interesting flight, go into an incognito mode (open Google Chrome, click on the three small dots above on the right and another click on New private navigation window) or change your ID address … Buying your plane ticket in advance is also a good alternative to overpriced flights. We recommend that you start looking as soon as you have your dates.
