International travel in India is increasingly getting popular, driven by increasing disposable incomes, enticing travel deals from partners, and a plethora of travel vlogs and blogs. Today, planning an international trip is no longer a daunting task. However, one question persists in the minds of many aspiring travelers: "How can we afford to take international trips?" 



The truth is, affordability is subjective. Salaries, responsibilities, and financial situations vary. But if you're up for a challenge, let's tackle this head-on!


Step 1: Destination Selection - Affordability Matters

One of the primary reasons Bali, Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, and Dubai (UAE) remain top choices for Indian travelers is their affordability. These countries offer breathtaking sights without breaking the bank. By choosing wisely, international destinations can be as cost-effective as domestic trips.


Step 2: Patience and Practice - The Key to Success

We recommend patience before embarking on your first international adventure. While booking 10-12 months in advance won't guarantee the absolute cheapest flight, it gives you a runway to make your dream a reality. This timeframe also allows you to practice saving diligently for your desired experiences. Remember, good things come to those who wait and work for them.


Step 3: The Thrill of Planning


Before booking that "any destination" ticket, follow these steps:

  1. Estimate your savings potential over the next 15-18 months.

  2. Research flight prices for your desired destinations. Remember, some destinations with pricier flights might have lower overall travel costs.

  3. Familiarize yourself with anticipated expenses, including flights, accommodation, activities, attractions, and visas.

  4. Utilize flight comparison websites like Skyscanner and Wego to find the best deals. Once booked, allocate monthly savings toward your trip, even if it means cutting back on non-essential expenses.

  5. Continuously monitor hotel prices and immerse yourself in destination knowledge through vlogs and blogs.
