A 2023 holiday shopping guide for the travelers in your life

It’s ONCE AGAIN that time of year when you have to think about what to get your friends, family, and loved ones. In many ways, travelers can be the easiest people to shop for. Even if you don’t see your traveling friends during the rest of the year, chances are, thanks to Instagram, Facebook, etc., you know where they’ve been. Or maybe you are a traveler yourself?

Either way, here is a simple 2023 holiday shopping guide for the travelers in your life.

A Dollar Flight Club Subscription

On average, Dollar Flight Club subscribers save more than $500 per international flight. The keys are time and destination flexibility. If you have those, then a Dollar Flight Club subscription is a small investment. You can easily save more on one flight than the cost of an annual subscription. Sign up, select your departure airport or region, and you’ll get notifications when flight prices from your preferred airport(s) dip between 60-90% below the standard fares. Deal alerts are delivered daily, sometimes hourly, via SMS/email for premium members. The premium plus tier includes first and business-class flights. Free trials are available for both tiers. 

Here is a list of other discounts and perks for premium members.

Some even take you shopping with them beforehand.  And they’ve recently started offering online classes. They start at $60 per device, plus the cost of groceries. Before you sign up, you can check out the list of items you’ll need. Gift cards are available for the exact amount of an online, taste of, or immersive class.
