Tricks to Finding the Cheapest Flights

Travel can be a lifesaver. The right vacation at the right time can refresh your body and mind. But ticket prices are sharply on the rise, many have written off travel as too expensive. However, with a few tricks and a little research, there are still lots of great deals to be had on airline tickets.

Early Bird Gets the Deal. Travel experts say that there are certain times of day when more deals are available. Airfares can change three times a day as airlines adjust their prices to fill up flights. Early morning is when the fares tend to be lowest, but it is a good idea to check every five hours to track prices as they change throughout the day. Also, it’s a good idea to check again at 5 pm when the airlines are trying hardest to fill empty seats.

What Wouldn’t a Business Traveler Do? Most business travelers fly on Mondays and Fridays, so Tuesday and Wednesday are the best days. Airlines will usually lower their prices on these days to aggressively try and fill empty seats.

Avoid the Crowds. Fly to popular places at unpopular times. The slowest time of the year for travel is in the Fall between Labor Day and Thanksgiving. Again, to try and fill more empty seats, the airlines will lower prices to get people to fly during this time of the year.

Right Place, “Wrong” Time? By flying to popular destinations at unpopular times, you can secure the best prices from travel companies and airlines. Here’s where flexibility in your planning can pay off. Going to the airline websites and planning your vacation around the best ticket prices offered can result in a fun, cost-effective vacation and maybe widen your horizons to a place you might never have considered before.

Package Deals. Many times the best deals on airfare can be found as part of a package rate. Most travel sites have package rates available and they are definitely worth a look. Often times, the entire package (hotel, airfare, rental car, meals, tours ect) is cheaper than just the plane ticket on another site. These deals are especially good on last minute bookings.

When tea and coffee was first introduced to Europe in 18th century, people thought that they were harmfully. So the king of Sweden decided to find out whether this was true or not. It happened that there had two brothers who were in prison at the time. The king ordered one of them drink tea every day and the other coffee. Both of them live many years without any problem. At last the one who had drank tea every day died at the age of 83 and the others one lived even long. Because of this, Sweden is today one of the countries that many people enjoy drinking tea and coffee.

【題目】閱讀表達(dá),閱讀下面的短文和問題,根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,在相應(yīng)題號后的橫線上寫下相關(guān)信息,完成對該問題的回答。答語要意思清楚,結(jié)構(gòu)正確,書寫工整。

Space tourism is the term used to describe space travel for entertaining purposes. What was once only a dream-described in books such as Arthur C. Clarke's 2001: A Space Odyssey—is now becoming a reality.

Futurologists are scientists who attempt to develop predictions of what life will be like in the future. After the first man landed on the moon in 1969, they thought that hotels would be built on the moon by the year 2000. Futurologists also considered the possibility that, in the 21 st century, families might go for a holiday on the moon. Neither of these predictions has come true yet—but the rapid development of technology may mean these predictions are a possibility in the years to come.

Space Adventures is currently the only company to have succeeded in sending paying passengers into space. Space Adventures worked with the Federal Space Agency of the Russian Federation and Rocket and Space Corporation Energia to offer flights for the world's first private space explorers. Each person paid over $20 million for their 10-day trip to the International Space Station.

Following several successful explorations into space, several companies are now considering the possibility of enabling tourists to visit space. In order to make it more affordable, suborbital space travel is being considered by many companies, including Virgin Galactic. Passengers would be transported to a height of between 100-160km above earth, experience 3-6 minutes of weightlessness and a view of the stars before being taken back down to earth. This is expected to cost around $200, 000 per person.

While it could be an enriching experience, there are some disadvantages to space tourism. Many critics (評論家) have commented that a huge growth in the spaceflight industry could drastically speed up the process of global warming. In addition, space travel is only really a possibility for the super-rich. Although Virgin Galactic claims to be "opening space to the rest of us", there are still millions' of people worldwide who wouldn't be able to afford it.

Aquarium (養(yǎng)魚缸)
