Take More Vacations

How to Search Better, Book Cheaper, and Travel the World

By: Scott Keyes

Narrated by: Scott Keyes

The founder of Scott’s Cheap Flights explains why we’re searching for airfare all wrong, shares the strategies that have saved his two million newsletter subscribers a collective $500 million on airfare, and presents a bold new approach for how to see the world while never overpaying for flights again.

When Scott Keyes booked flights to Italy for $130 roundtrip and Japan for $169 roundtrip, he didn’t just uncover amazing fares; it was the beginning of a new approach that makes travel possible for anyone who has dreamed of seeing the world.

What’s stopping us all from traveling more? The confusion of buying airfare - not knowing when to book, where to buy, or what to pay.

Take More Vacations is the guidebook for anyone hoping to turn one annual vacation into three. Listeners will discover why the traditional way of planning vacations undercuts our ability to enjoy them, and how a new strategy can lead to cheaper fares and more trips. Why cheap flights never have to be inconvenient flights, and all the steps you can take to get a good fare even when you don’t have flexibility. The surprising best week for international travel, and how small airports actually get the best deals.

Keyes challenges the conventional wisdom that it costs thousands of dollars to fly overseas and shows readers how to make previously unthinkable trips possible.

I wish I knew about this years ago

Ok let’s get the only negative thing out of the way - this book is outdated so I’m guessing there’s probably changes to the traveling world that make some of this info invalid. Thats not the author’s fault, of course. I didn’t realize this is a few years old nor did I think to look.

With that said, I loved this book! The concepts I bet still mostly hold true and I’ll probably find some cheaper flights, but what I loved the most is how it changed my mindset about how to plan for, look for, and execute my travels. Well done with good examples. Definitely recommend it!

Really great resource

Great if you want to make travel accessible and avoid overpaying for flights. I like how it didn't just focus on points and miles as many resources do. I would love if Scott wrote a companion book about cheap lodging!

Exceeded expectations!

Well narrated and easy to follow and understand book. Lots of good advise and to the point tips.

Use these strategies

I first started reading the physical book from the library, but I got the Audible version because my commute time is a good opportunity to “read” books. I love the info about how to optimize Google Flights and I have begun doing this. Great info about “creating your own layovers.” Makes sense of something that was hard to understand before - why flight pricing works as it does. Ironically, now I want the physical book because I want to refer back to certain strategies.

I loved the final part where he talked about meeting his wife. It was very touching.

great advice for budget and frugal travellers!

I've been following Scott Keyes for years, and I subscribe to his cheap flight alert service. Much of what is in this book has been covered in various online posts, live events, email blasts, etc, but this puts it in a comprehensive form. That said, I learned quite a few new tips from this audiobook and I am looking forward to putting these tricks to use to score even more deals! I enjoyed hearing Scott read this in his own voice. It almost feels like talking to a friend. Safe travels!

The BEST Travel Hacking Book!

Super insightful book with the EXACT strategy on finding cheap flights. Really thoughtful, informative, and inspiring - highly recommend!

Read this to unlock some great cheap flight tips!

Thanks for the amazing tips!

It was OK

Parts just seem like an upsell for his website and the other parts seem like they could have been sumed up in a couple of 1000 word blog posts.

But overall I think I learned a couple of things.
