Saving on transport

The key to saving money on transport is research, research, research. The Internet is your friend. Often traveling by rail and sea will be cheaper than flying, but it’s not always the case, so do check out your options. Similarly, return trips can sometimes be cheaper than one way. If it’s going to take you a long time to get to your destination, consider traveling overnight some of the way to save time, as well as saving money on accommodation. These types of off-peak trips are also usually much cheaper.
