Anyone whos into travel has probably heard of flight deal finders that find deals and send automated emails with lower-than-usual fares.

　　Ive dabbled with a few throughout the years and found options that helped me get back to California via Singapore from Rome (what a whirlwind that was!), to more simple options that will get me from my home airport to Europe this summer for less.

　　How does the Dollar Flight Club (sponsor of this post) measure up to the others Ive tried? Heres everything to know:

　　Dollar Flight Clubs MO is to save members $500+ on flights via email alerts. When you sign up for Dollar Flight Club youll input your home airport and and email address. Dollar Flight Club combs deals throughout the day and sends you alerts via email or SMS whenever they come across one that matches.

　　How many deals you get, what class of service theyre in, and how many departure airports and dates you can choose depends on your membership level:

　　Free Membership The free membership will allow you to choose one departure airport, and youll receive periodic deals when theres a match. However, you wont get quite as many deals as Premium and Premium+ members receive.

　　I fly out of a rather small local airport and always have to have a layover to fly internationally, so I like to input any of the major airports I could fly out of. This opens me up to way more deals, which leads me to the Premium benefits.

　　Premium

　　Spring in Amsterdam! The premium membership allows you to choose up to 4 airports as well as enjoying both domestic and international deals. In the example image above, I received an alert about deals from San Francisco to Amsterdam, which is a fantastic jumping off point to explore or fly elsewhere in Europe, for a pretty wide range of dates from fall through spring.

　　They include instructions on where to find the deal, with links to Google flights and skyscanner. True to their email, I found plenty of deals for the prices they mentioned, and less than $500 from Northern California to Europe is a steal.

　　The Premium membership costs $69 per year (billed annually) and offers a 14-day $1 trial (note that it will automatically charge your card after the 14 days is through).

　　Premium+

　　What about economy plus and business class deals? We love flying business class, but it can obviously be super pricey, so when theres a good deal, its really a deal.

　　The Premium+ membership offers everything the premium does, but includes economy plus and business class deals. It costs $169/year and also offers a discounted two week trial.

　　My Experience with Dollar Flight Club

　　The most London photo ever To test out the service, I put in some major US airports, including ones that I fly out of myself, like JFK, SFO, Los Angeles, and Seattle.

　　I started receiving deals immediately. So far, Ive been averaging five deals per day, both domestic and international.

　　You can also note your dream destinations and airlines, and if youd prefer to receive the alerts via text rather than email (or both!).

　　I like that this service has some helpful explanations on where to find the deals and how to book them with their tips. In the example above, they have detailed directions to help you find the exact deal theyve found.

　　I also think its promising that I have so many deals to Europe in particular in my inbox, considering that those deals have been harder and harder to find lately. So far, Im pretty impressed with what they have found, and interestingly, these are entirely different deals, and some of the other aggregators I use.

　　Is Dollar Flight Club Worth It?

　　Dollar Flight Club can be a great tool if you are open to being serendipitous with your destinations, because as with any deal finder, its going to be every deal under the sun. That said, lets say you want to go to Europe for Christmas markets, flying into Amsterdam, London, or Paris could all make sense. From there its easy to get onward to wherever youre trying to go via train, and as they say, a stopover in Paris is always a good idea.

　　Dollar Flight Club in particular is pretty cheap at $69 for Premium as far as deal finders go (FareDrop, which is another tool I use and one that interestingly has completely different deals, is $100 for their similar membership plan).

　　Plus, you can try before you buy with a $1 introductory 14 day membership. Just remember that youll be in for an entire years membership after that trial period if you dont cancel.

　　We travel often, and I am subscribed to several flight deal finding services. I typically find one deal per year per service that I take advantage of. This means Im saving anywhere from $500 for me as an individual to $1500 plus for my family. So I consider these services a fantastic tool.
