How I Saved My Dad Over $400 on His Thanksgiving Flights

When you book smart, you can book cheaper—without sacrificing a thing.

A few months ago, my dad booked his Thanksgiving flights from Regina to Tampa on one of the big-name travel sites. The price looked fair, so he clicked “Book Now” and moved on.

Out of curiosity, I ran the same flights through the tools I use at Rintoul Travel Adventures. Same airline. Same dates. Same times. $409 less.

No changes. No compromises. Just hundreds saved.

We canceled his original (thankfully refundable) booking and rebooked at the lower fare. That extra $409 covered his checked bags, airport parking, and even a nice dinner in Florida. 💸

And here’s the bonus: the booking tools I use don’t nickel-and-dime you with seat selection fees. On airlines like Air Canada, those can start at $19 per person, per segment—which adds up fast on a round trip with connections. With my system, your seat is included in the fare, so those extra costs never sneak up on you.

🔍 What This Really Shows

The lowest price isn’t always on the biggest website.

Online travel agencies are convenient—but they don’t always show every available fare. My industry-only booking tools give me access to rates and availability you won’t find on public sites, especially around peak holidays like Thanksgiving.

That’s my edge—and I use it to help travelers spend less and travel better.
