Yapta.com

Posted by Staff in Wed. Travel Web

When buying an airline ticket on a budget, especially for fixed travel dates, I sometimes feel I do a very stressful dance called the budget-airfare-tango…it goes a little bit like this: I want this flight…I will not pay this price…this price seems cheap…but will it go down…should I buy…will I regret…

I recently discovered a website, Yapta.com, that helps end the stress of this risqué dance. Yapta searches for the cheapest flights, then monitors them for you and sends out an alert when the price drops.  Now if you take the gamble and buy at this first price drop, there is no worry if the price drops again…because if it does, Yapta sends you explicit instructions on how to claim a travel credit for the difference…and if paperwork is not your thing, they will do the dirty work for a fee of $15.

Now if you are really thrifty and looking to fly for free, Yapta can also track any flight and let you know when frequent flier award seats become available.

With Yapta.com the “I paid too much for this flight” saga draws to an end.
