I love
holidays. There is something very special and exciting about spending time in a
new place. I love soaking up the culture
and history of a place along with having fun and adventures sightseeing and
exploring. I also love the excitement
and thrill of visiting adventure and amusement parks, and love the enjoyment of
action filled days on holiday as I try activities such as water-sports. Equally
I love relaxing and taking it easy, enjoying tranquil days spent lazing on the
beach with a good book.
Whilst the
highlight of a holiday is the holiday itself, I also love planning the holiday.
I find it exciting and a great build up to a holiday to peruse the internet and
holiday catalogues to find the perfect destination and the best deal. I also
find that the exciting reality of being about to go on holiday comes alive when
buying holiday essentials and packing suitcases.
Whilst we
often have little holidays across the UK and love holidaying in the UK as Lee
and Bug have yet to have a holiday abroad and it has been well over 10 years
since I ventured past the shores of the UK we are hoping that our next family holiday
will be one abroad.
We have
family living in France who we rarely get to see so we plan on having a little
holiday in France, staying with them in their guest house which will allow us
to be close to them so we spend lots of quality family time together. We hope on doing a lot of sightseeing, having magical days at Disneyland Paris and I hope for a touch of romance with Lee.....hopefully he will get all romantic for my birthday with a surprise re-proposal and a new engagement ring to replace my broken one. Another
bonus of staying with family is that we will be saving money as we won’t have
to pay for accommodation.
As we do
not need accommodation for our holiday to France and only need flights a
package deal is not suitable for us. Being a savvy-money-saving kind of girl
who loves planning holidays and getting the best deal for our money I am
thrilled to have a little help from Amadeus.net to help us find the cheapest and
most convenient flight for our first family holiday abroad.
What I love
about Amadeus.net is that not only can use the easy to use travel planning tool
to find the best deal and most suitable flight for your holiday but you can
also save your holiday with the ‘Create Plan’ feature. To create a plan for
your holiday you simply give your plan a name, add tags associated with your
holiday (city, sightseeing etc. for example), choose a picture for your plan,
add a short description of your holiday and then if you want to you can add
email addresses of friends and family who you want to share your plan with - which
I think is great especially if you are having a holiday with extended family or
friends.
Once you
have created your plan, which you can set to be public or private, you can add
flights to it. Using the search tool that works with natural language searches you
simply search for the flights and click on the little heart symbol underneath
the best flights for you to add them to your plan.
Even
though Amadeus.net is a non-transitional travel tool it is very useful for helping
people plan more their holiday or trip more efficiently, helping them find the
best deal and most suitable flight especially thanks to being able to compare
flights and filter the flights a number of ways including by price, total
flight duration and outbound arrival time.
Amadeus.net
also has an array of other tools to help when planning holidays including price
trends display, world clock, airport guides and dialling codes.
As well as
being able to add flights to your holiday page you can also add any links from
other sites to your plan; such as links for hotels, restaurants, attractions or
relevant reviews. I love this feature as it makes planning your holiday easier
with all the links needed for your holiday being stored safely in one place.
I love the
concept of Amadeus.net and all of its features so far. Over time other features
will be added to the site, such as hotels, which I can’t wait to see and use. I
think if you could search for other travel options such as hotels, car hire and
local attractions along with the flights then Amadeus.net will be a great site for
planning your whole holiday, rather than just flights, so that you get the best
deal for a full holiday.
If you
need inspiration you can always check out other Amadeus.net users’ holiday plans.
You can
also be inspired by my Holiday Plan Oui Paris for a taster of what Amadeus can
do for you.
Go create
your next holiday, perhaps like us a family holiday or maybe your honeymoon or
a holiday with the girls. Let Amadeus help you get a great deal as you plan
your perfect holiday.
