travel discounts Student Travel Discount   A Great Way to Save Money

Students are one of the privileged classes who enjoy Student Travel Discount, be it for hostel accommodation, rail fares, air fares, bus fares, travel packages or amusement fares, museums etc. Students constantly travel either within the country or abroad, for education, research and even sometimes to gain relevant work experience for further education. However, the high prices of air travel often haunt them. But at least now, they have a better option, as in terms of air tickets, they can book their tickets well in advance to enjoy maximum discounts.

Students can easily browse through several websites of airlines and travel agencies to look for Discount Air travel offers or packages. In certain cases, the earlier the students decide their schedule and make reservations, the higher will be the discounts in air fares available to them and it will keep decreasing with the passing of each day. While in other cases the Student Travel Discount is generally fixed. For example, the Cheap air travel is available only on a single route i.e. it is available only for one-way flight. This kind of discount is most suitable to students who are not sure of their date of return and do not need Discount Global Travel to go elsewhere. But some travel sites also offer Student Travel Discount offering an open ticket option for return date and the condition being the availability of seat in the required flight. Some sites also offer a Discount Air Travel on the return travel if is made within a specific period of time.

Again if the students want to avail Discount Global Travel for international flights, they have to board the flights specified under the package offered which could mean longer traveling hours, boarding and un-boarding of more than two or three flights to reach their destinations and fewer facilities on such flights which offer economic fares, but are low on quality service. Some student travel discount packages also include insurance for students.

At times, certain airline companies may have specific flights that offer special Student Travel discount at the time of the commencement of semesters or courses in overseas universities so that maximum students can benefit from it. So the students have to constantly be on the look out for such offers in order to avail cheap air travel.

Budget travel France?

Shella Asked:

I'm a 20 year old girl from Hong Kong. I'm planning to visit and have Budget travel France for at least 3 weeks in summer. I plan to visit several different places, with Provence as my focus, but I'll fly to Paris first and visit Giverny. I don't drive, so I'll have to rely on public transport, or my own feet.
I already plan to buy the Rail Europe train pass, and will probably live in 2-star (or below) hotels or youth hostels.
What other ways are there to save money on my trip?

Reply:

To begin with, unless you plan on spending a lot of time on trains, a Eurail pass is often not much of a bargain. If you intend to travel only in France then a France Rail Pass rather than a Eurail Pass is clearly what you should get.

Next, plan your actual route and take the time to research each destination rather than simply wandering around as the mood strikes you. Budget travel France is best accomplished with careful planning.

You will also find that the French hotel star system is a poor indicator of either cost or quality. It is based on the presence or absence of certain physical amenities (elevators, restaurants) and does not evaluate things like cleanliness or staff attitudes.

Might I ask why you are traveling all the way from Hong Kong yet seem to be giving short shift to Paris? Have you been to France before?

EDIT: Okay, that makes it easier to understand your question. It would still be to your advantage to consider where you actually intend to travel within Provencebefore investing in anykind of rail pass.

Provence is, after all, not very large, and therefore distances and train fares are not very big.

Richard Asked:

any seasoned traveller going egypt in december, would kindly like to recommend a nice guide or who want to meet up there ?and i m on a budget travel tour, is it possible to visit aswan, luxour and cairo within 10 days ?

Reply:

yes, it is possible to do this, first get yourself a good guide book for budget travel tour i like the lonely planet guides. if you start in Cairo you can see the Giza pyramids, the museum, ( most important)maybe khan El khalili and saquarra and memphis as well. 2 days. fly or take the night train to luxor this is cheaper but you need advice on how to get tickets ( I'm not sure cos i have never done it)in luxor use taxis to get around and see the valley of the kings, valley of the queens, deir el bahri, karnak temple, ether the small museum there and or luxor temple. minimum 2 days. to get to Aswan you can take a taxi or coach or fly if you have time and money you can cruise to Aswan 2 days sailing. fabulous experience. on route see edfu and kom ombo. at Aswan see Philae and the unfinished obelisk , take a coach ride( 4 hours each way) or flight to abu simble. a further 2 days. i would build in a rest day as well which leaves you with 3 more days. You could use these to visit the red pyramid and the Benny pyramid in Cairo. or the valley of the artisans and or valley of nobles and medinet habu , rameseum. all of the above are worth seeing. but you need to decide if maybe this schedule is so hectic you will not remember the different places or be too tired to appreciate them. if you want more advice contact me

edit yes you can reply to us click on our pictures and you will get up our profile page at the top it will tell you if we accept e mail... incidentally i do click on the e mail icon and it will give you a direct message windo which is e mailed to us.
please do contact me. can give you LOTS of impartial advice and yes you can get a guide ofr one person but i would advise getting different guides in each town, not taking one with you all the way.
