LuckyTrip Budget Setting

LuckyTrip allows you to set your own budget, the budget minimal is £150 and goes up to £1000+ depending on how luxurious you want your trip to be, however, I set myself a budget of £200.

Everyday Luckytrip gives you unique articles about how you can spend your time in a beautiful city and even explore a place on a budget, it’s well worth a good read, it even gave me a few ideas.

In the filters section I can choose which airport I wanted to leave from and how many people will be travelling with me and then I felt a bit lucky and went with the dates set as Lucky Mode and the rest of the setting I kept at default.

After a few seconds, Luckytrip found me a trip to Salamanca, Spain for 2 nights at £180, however, I changed the hotel from ‘BeSalamanca ‘ to ‘Sercotel Las Torres’, which cost me £14 extra.

Booking flights and hotels is really simple, just scroll down and press book, where a menu will pop up saying select your flights and then pick your hotel, once you have done that just press next and processed with entering your details and payments.

Issues you may come across

  1. Choosing specific days may decrease the number of offers you will receive.
  2. Planning a holiday for 6 people will also result in less holiday destination.
  3. Make sure you press the like button if you see a destination you like, otherwise you wouldn’t be able to find it again.

A feature I would like: History log of holiday destination the app found, pressing search will usually result in never finding that destination again.
