“Right now, we are living in the golden age of cheap flights. It has never been cheaper to fly from the U.S. over to Europe or Asia than it is today.” - Scott Keyes, Co-Founder & CEO of Scott's Cheap Flights
On this episode of the Edge of Comfort Podcast I talk Scott Keyes, the Co-Founder and CEO of Scott’s Cheap Flights. We discuss how he scaled Scott’s Cheap Flights, future areas of focus, how to find cheap airfare, mistake fares, and everything else cheap flights we could fit into an hour.
Most travelers today spend hours and hours scouring the internet for good flight deals. At some point, you've been told Tuesday is the best day to buy flight tickets. You’ve probably found extremely cheap airfare, only to have it disappear 30 minutes later.
Overall, travelers encounter many unexplainable or frustrating experiences when finding and booking flights.
On today’s episode I talk with Scott Keyes (FB / IG / TW), who is the Co-Founder and CEO of Scott’s Cheap Flights. In our conversation, Scott helps debunk some of these rumors and explain different details, best practices and other tips for cheap flights in today’s airline industry.
Scott’s Cheap Flights is not a travel agency or search engine, but a membership service that alerts you through email every time crazy flight deals pop up.
A team of flight experts are located around the world constantly finding cheap flights. When they do find these fares, they email them to members along with departing cities, destinations, dates, how long they expect the deal to last, and how to book.
To date, they’ve helped members save over $100 million dollars on airfare. I’ve received their emails for the last few months and can definitely attest to the fact they find insane deals.
Scott started sharing flight deals in 2013 after finding a roundtrip deal from NYC to Milan for $130. He started sending deals to a few friends, who added their own friends, and eventually he was sending emails to around 5,000 people. He realized he had something special and decided to go full-time with Scott’s Cheap Flights.
Today, Scott's Cheap Flights sends deals to over 1,600,000 free and premium members.
Scott has traveled to 45 countries and 45 U.S. states. He has lived in Mexico, Mozambique, Chile, all over the U.S. and currently lives in Portland. He was featured on Entrepreneur’s 50 Most Daring Entrepreneurs of 2017 along with people like Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk.
Thank you for listening and hope you enjoy!
