Fancy A Surf Trip? Here’s How To Get Ridiculously Cheap Flights

Here in Cornwall we’ve had an almost unprecedentedly bad start to the winter.

Weeks and weeks of on-shores and lacklustre swell have got the entire south west surf community about ready to run for the hills. While other parts of Blighty have been enjoying a slightly less tragic start to the season, as temperatures drop and winter sets in, we reckon most of you are about ready for a winter mission. Being the frugal bunch that you are, we thought it might be helpful to introduce you to a little service we stumbled across recently, one that offers you dramatically reduced flights to all manner of exotic destinations.

It’s called Jack’s Flight Club and it has a team that spends all day scouring the web for ridiculously cheap flights, caused by pricing errors and big airline discounts. Then, once a week, it emails you with its findings. Unlike other services of its kind, the flights it finds aren’t due to leave in the following few days, saving you the pain of picking between a dirt cheap trip to the Maldives and weeks in the dog house for missing your other halves Christmas work do. In fact, the deals you receive are usually on flights set to take of between 3-11 months in the future, offering you ample planning time.

You can sign up for free, and receive one newsletter a week, or you can pay £30 a year, and get first dibs and a whole load of deals that the free folk don’t get told about. Premium membership also allows you to set your preferred outbound airport.

Some of the best deals to date have included Inverness to Hawaii for £239, UK to the US for £159 and only last month some return flights to the Maldives for less than £400. You get the picture, it’s a steal.

So sign up now and don’t ever say we don’t look after you!
