to spend gastar
Think gastronomy: You surely will be ‘spending’ when dining in restaurants that carry Michelin stars.

I only spent three dollars. Sólo gasté tres dólares.

Cheap flying
What is the best way to buy cheap airline tickets? Cutting back on your travel costs is certainly profitable, because it involves relatively large amounts, so every cut is extra hard. In other words: optimizing your travel budget. The most beautiful trips, already earned with savings elsewhere, in the most inexpensive way. That is double the win, but it is a matter of smart choice. Here are the tips.
Flash sales for cheap airline tickets
In technical terms it is called Flash sales. Dirt cheap tickets. You never actually see them in the newspaper and on TV and that's because everyone would think that those are the normal prices. And the airlines don't want that. They can be booked a few (two to seven) days before departure. So no early bird discount, but just filling up empty seats for a bargain price. The best way is to actively look for it yourself. Check the airline's website every few days. If you want to leave within now and three months, this is the cheapest way. Unfortunately, the tickets get even cheaper after the next round.
Limit your choice
There are so many sites and offers. It is better to search on a few good sites such as D-Reizen, Cheap tickets and a number of foreign sites and therefore the sites of the airlines. Compare them with each other and that's how you book your own candy trips. It's not free, but it can't get any cheaper.
Fly app
Most airlines these days have an app. With this you can check in, but also arrange a cheap upgrade of your flight. You can also keep an eye on the delays. You can also follow KLM on Facebook. There you will find even more interesting information.
Those last minutes are more expensive
Except for charter flights, most scheduled services are more expensive just before departure. The airlines collectively stop with the last minute offers in order to keep prices artificially high. Yet they want the chairs full, so look for those bargains, because they are there. About twelve days before departure, many prices are fixed or even very much more expensive (sometimes 250 euros more expensive). So in some places you can find cheap tickets and in other places you pay the main price just before departure. That is to serve the entire market: people who opt for comfort and have enough money or people who are forced to leave book the expensive flights just before departure and the currants forage for the Flash sales.
Fly on Tuesday
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday are the cheapest days to fly. The weekend is expensive. We all want to leave for the weekend and the airlines know that. June, July, August and Christmas are the most expensive months because of the holidays and school holidays.
Booking costs of 60 euros on top of your ticket price
Does the price you see on your screen include or exclude booking costs? You hope inclusive, otherwise you just pay 50 to 70 euros extra in booking costs. The Dutch also charge the top prize for payments with credit cards. In the U.S. it's free, so book your trip smartly with an American travel agency. Ideal is completely ideal, because it is free.
You think that switching with the same airline will be cheaper... Wrong!
It is sometimes better to fly on with a reliable budget airline. Certainly outside of Europe: you can fly to Bangkok and continue there cheaper locally with, for example, a local airline like Easyjet (air Asia). Everything is more expensive in Europe. If you book through those cheaper oriental airlines, you can also take a look around Bangkok.
Luggage costs of 60 euros
Luggage costs can add up. The employees of some budget airlines even receive a premium if they 'caught' travelers with too many kilos of overweight. A kilo of excess weight in your luggage is already ten euros extra. Your hand luggage will also be checked extra.
Book cheap travel through foreign companies
If you really want to book a bit cheaper when you fly to the East, take a look at the sites of the United Emirates, Qatar and the like in the Middle East. Belgium is cheap if you can fly via Antwerp or Brussels with KLM and, for example, Joker.be.
Finally
It's still a good search. But once it's done, it becomes a sport to get from A to B so efficiently. Cheap flights exist and can seriously compete with train and car travel. The advantage is that you are there quickly. Handy if you have to return the same day. Travel lightly packed, then you pay nothing and you can go through all the gates in no time. Good trip.

Powerless to Resist
@schittscreekdrabbleblog word: Spend
****
Patrick emerged from their ensuite wearing only a towel. David was pouting while laying bed.
“Why are you up?” David whined.
“Because it’s 9AM on Monday morning. The world is up and working,” Patrick snarked.
“Our work isn’t open on Monday! We should sleep in!”
Patrick stood in front of David, looking at his husband. “David…” he began.
“Let’s spend the day in bed,” David interrupted, pushing the sheet away. He was naked, his slim hips framed his hard length. “I have a warm place for your dick.” David spread his long legs. Patrick’s resistance broke. He climbed into bed.
