One of the most important aspects of getting the best travel deals is to look at the right places and based on our own experiences and personal preferences, here's are the the sites below that we strongly recommend you to start your research plans from.

They are not particurlarly listed in any particular order as all of them are very good for getting the best deals for almost any travel vacations for any traveller's whim and fancy. Of course, for getting the best discounted air ticket deals, we prefer Vayama and Airtreks.

1) Vayama is a first-of-its kind travel web site that gives travelers a whole new world of choice in international air travel. Using the latest in web technologies, Vayama offers a massive selection of airlines, flights and fares, many never previously available online, so travellers can find the lowest prices and best schedule options for all your international travel.

Vayama is part of the global online company, Travix, which manages an extensive portfolio of travel-focused websites operating under the brand names BudgetAir, CheapTickets, Flugladen, and Vliegwinkel. Travix operates its five brands in 15 countries; employs 375 staff; and combined sales in excess of US $1Billion.

Economy Travel have consolidator contracts (wholesale rates) with 24 of the world’s leading airlines and have full access to the product range of all international and domestic carriers. It uses a sophisticated database search engine that allows it to provide the lowest airfares regardless whether it is a published fare (airline fare sale) or wholesale fare (consolidator fare). A well established consolidator since 1988 and based in the US.

2) Airtreks

Planning a round-the-world ( RTW) itinerary is no easy task and there are multiple factors that an RTW traveller will have to consider in arranging the itinerary. As such, round-the-world tickets are best left to the expertise of a truly specialised RTW international travel agent or travel player.

The best round-the-world international travel agent or agency in the RTW business for expertise, reliability and customer service is in our view, undoubtedly Airtreks. Airtreks' unique global sourcing strategy and proprietary technology make it possible for it to offer international air tickets at substantial discounts from the published fares offered by airlines, typical travel agencies, or other airfare Web sites.

For complex RTW itineraries, Airtreks is certainly the market leader in this field and we strongly recommend the agency for its strong expertise and wide range of experience in the RTW industry.

3) STA Travel 

Since it began in 1979, STA Travel has been wholly owned by Diethelm Keller Holding Ltd., a Swiss private company founded over 100 years ago. Today, it is the world's largest student travel organisation helping students travel in over 90 countries.

Many of its customers hold an International Student Identity Card (ISIC), International Youth Travel Card (IYTC), or International Teacher Travel Card (ITIC). Backed by UNESCO, these cards reward students, youth, and teacher status by providing value offers and discount opportunities. All these cards are regulated by the International Student Travel Confederation of which STA Travel is a leading member.

Given its established history and network worldwide, STA Travel is the undoubted leader in the student and youth airfares market.
