LOVE google flights! In 2015 I was able to book a 1 way flight from Denmark to Ireland for $14, to France for $30, and round trip to England for $50 on east jet and Ryan air. In the US, just earlier this year Google flights got me a $55 round trip from chicago to Miami! When I tell ppl this they never believe me, but I’ve always found good deals through there!! Just make sure your internet is on private incognito mode so it doesn’t track the data/cookies
Why should it not track cookies etc? Thank you for your answer
Hey doortovalue I have a ? for you in 8/10/24 I will be going on a cruise and I need airfare from Phil to Ft.Lauderdale so I went on google flights and they want like a thousand dollars I thought that is crazy. I can also get airfare from the cruise line which one do you think is better and any hacks you can give me would be greatly appreciated.
How far are you from BWI? Southwest goes from BWI to FLL for reasonable $$. You also can travel with 2 checked bags free. Always travel to Port the day before.
I had a terrible experience with Spirit airlines recently
@@anhelinabodnar1066 once you look at a trip with an airline and then you go back the price jumps. If I go on another computer I get the same price I originally got. If I use the original computer I end up always with a higher price.
This video is literally SO amazing. I knew a lot...but I learned SO MANY THINGS from this one! Def saved in favorites!
Well done! Another reason why you have 1 million subscribers Erika. You always know how to make your videos engaging and informative as possible!
This was my first ever video of Erica’s on youtube. I wrote so many notes! I subscribed. I’m subscribing to Chris’s. My entire existence is about traveling the world slowly and living inside cultures. The new travel hacks & sites mentioned, I’d never heard of before. THANK YOU. Hey I’m an OG GenXer. 52. Woman. US Navy Vet. Retired. I have a passive set income. I have no debt. I don’t own a home. I’m free to roam. I really needed this information to help me on my way and save money. What a great topic! BTW, I haven’t used hot water to wash clothes in over 10 years.
Congratulations! You've done many, many things right! I am already an expat who also tries to roam the world by Slow Travel in 90 day trips. One day I may even find another location to change my permanent residency to .... maybe the secret is to invest money to give you passive income. Corporate bonds, preferred stocks, annuities, etc.
I rarely enjoy these long style interviews, but Chris is informative, well-spoken, and interesting. Excellent interview!
I’ve watched a few episodes of your podcast now and I’m really enjoying it. I like the topics you cover and the guests you bring. I never thought I’d get into “finance CZcams” but in general these vids are helping me get more comfortable with how I think about money. Thanks Erika 😌
Very fun and engaging video to keep up with! The good vibes between you guys is contagious and it feels nice that the questions and replies feel free form and directly responsive rather than a checklist of questions to get through like a lot of other podcasts and news channel interviews.
Another great one, Erika! Such a genuine, enthusiastic guest: I could have listened for much, much longer and gleaned even more tips and hacks! Love it!
Thanks for sharing Erika and Chris!! Loved this video and your enthusiasm you showed!
Love this video, i had to watch it twice to make sure i got all the tips! So much to learn!
Erika ty for bringing such great guests!
I'm definitely a maximizer and you don't find ppl like that everyday.
Happy to feel understood 😊

This is golden!!! I don't spend money unless I get something back!

Absolutely wonderful tips. Look forward to many other videos like this!
Thank you very much Erika for this money-saving podcast. Loved it!
The way I fly Delta and didn’t know the delayed bag hack! Thank you
As an Airbnb superhost, which doesn’t really mean anything nowadays, I simply do not accept any bookings of people trying to ask for discounts nor try to work around the Airbnb platform rules. It basically asks for trouble. It says guests potentially will not care about the house rules either. Also, Airbnb fees are not 30% for the host, so that single point makes the whole story sus.
That was delightful and informative! Thank you!
Great show, I am learning so much from you. Thank you
Thank you for all the information, really enjoyed it

Such a fun episode ❤❤❤
Lots of good gems, thanks 😊.
This was perfect!
Thanks so much for sharing these valuable hacks. Saving money is always in season.
I know some of these, like splitting up flights instead of one long haul, to save money. Some of these are not relevant to Europe, but definitely learning some new things here. Very exciting🤩 Thank you! Still watching so Im sure I get a lot of more tips in the rest of the video.
You either save time but pay more or you save money but no time savings. No way around it. I’m in the state to save my precious time, hassle and energy.
Great guest and you both have valuable $avings information. Thank you❗️
Really good episode 😊
I used to live in the US and I enjoyed saving a lot of money but what you guys talked about is wow... I really learned a lot. I am actually doing a similar thing here in my own country, Indonesia and trying to spend the least but not always optimizing. I also look at many factors like time, health, etc. Saving money doesn't always save money for that moment. Many things you have to take into account.
Great content as usual
Awesome. Thx
This was Off THE CHAIN.
Great podcast!! 👍
Thank you Erika and Chris. So much information packed into this video. My son takes a lot of Delta flights. I will let him know the 20 minute rule on luggage, and give him your site info.
12:28 Airbnb will be so happy 😂
Love this!
Love it!!! I play the point game as well and it is sweet:)
Awesome content!!
It reminds me of when I migrated from the Philippines to the US, bringing with me my frugality and mindset
Very interesting show!
GOOD ONE!
Good fun info👍

Great information
Oh i learn many things in this podcast.

Wow! Excellent video ❤
When you set the timer to show your bags have been delayed for more than 20 minutes, who do you show your phone timer to, to get the credit?
Great episode
Lost me at “read the fine print.” I’m here because I’m not reading the fine print.
That was awesome!
This is funny because I’m always the first to offer to pay with my capital venture card and just have people pay me back haha
Just found your channel. New subscriber
I LOVE the travel hacks!
What I do when I travel is have groceries delivered to where I’m staying at. I’ll just order snacks and drinks and that helps so much with the cost of buying out
