Wego travel app ... an ideal holiday companion
Wego provides travel tips for hassle-free summer holiday
DUBAI, July 25, 2024
Wego, a leading travel app, has compiled a list of essential tips, such as multiple payment choices, and recommendations of destinations and hotels, which, it said, will ensure the summer trips are smooth-sailing and enjoyable.
Summer is one of the busiest travel seasons, coinciding with school breaks and family vacations, and a period when flights and hotel prices become highly unpredictable, said Wego, the largest online travel marketplace in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA).
To ease travel preparations, Wego says, its app is the ideal summer companion for booking flights, trains, hotels, visas, and much more.
Wego app, which compares prices across 700+ websites, can help users secure the best summer deals, reserve bookings with multiple payment choices, including split payment in select countries to minimise big expenses associated with last-minute bookings, say travel experts at Wego.
When the Wego location is set to the travel destination, the traveller will be presented with suggestions and inspirations for the trip, from must-visit places to top recommendations for local hotels and resorts.
The experts also suggest making advanced preparations and early booking as last-minute travel plans can make flights very expensive.
“Many flights are also prone to cancellations or delays during this period, so it's important to check the airline’s cancellation policies and have a backup plan in place. To safeguard against potential issues, consider getting travel insurance, which can cover delays, cancellations, lost luggage, and medical emergencies, they said.
Some of the tips Wego is sharing include:
- Avoiding payment of exorbitantly high prices of summer travel
- Opting for early morning or red-eye flights, which are often more affordable
- If the choice is budget airlines, paying close attention to their baggage policies, seat selection fees, and onboard food options, as these can add extra costs to the initially low airfare.
Airports tend to be crowded during this peak vacation season, so Wego advises passengers to arrive early for security procedures and allow extra time for unexpected delays.
Checking in online can help you bypass the airport crowds and reach your boarding gate quickly. Also, downloading e-ticket to mobile devices will eliminate the risk of losing a printed ticket.
Consider checking if your preferred airline offers premium economy class. Premium economy passengers often get faster, priority access during check-in and boarding, and potential access to premium lounges.
In-flight benefits such as extra legroom and hot onboard cuisine can be advantageous on longer flights.
