Real Client: We Travel-Hacked Her Flights to Paris

December 20, 2019

Our Client, Judy hired Hello Sunny Skies to help find the least expensive round-trip flights to Paris.  She had a tight budget but wanted to surprise her two daughters and her husband with a bucket list trip.

Hello Sunny Skies was up for the challenge!

Plans for Paris

Judy wants to travel to Paris in May.  She needs a total of 4 round-trip plane tickets.  She’s flexible with her travel dates.  Her home airport is Chicago O’hare.  The least expensive flight she has found out of Chicago was $1103/round-trip on a major airline. This was out of her budget.

Hacked Flight

Hello Sunny Skies researched alternative direct-flight calendars and found that she could fly from New York DIRECT to Paris on Tues. May 5 for $164.90 and home on the 13th for $209.90.  That’s $374.80/round-trip. Now the only issue is Judy needs to do a stay-over in NYC. After doing a quick search, we found her direct round-trip plane tickets to NYC from Chicago for $177.  So $374.80 + $177= $551.80.  They will have the expense of a hotel for one night in NYC, but plan to use hotel reward points for the stay-over.  On the way home from Europe they will gain time, so there is no need for a hotel stay.

Total Savings

Stay-Over: $551.80 x 4 tickets = $2207.20

Direct from Chicago: $1103 x 4 tickets = $4412.00

Saving almost 50% on flights plus a night in NYC! Fair to say that Judy was thrilled with the savings.
