I would totally upgraded my hotel and do other little luxuries instead of paying 5000 extra for 6.5 hours flight. With this extra you could stay in a luxury/ very decent hotels for 2 months. Totally not worth the splurge on the flight on the account of staying in "tired" hotel

@maryb211 2 месяца назад

I truly agree but I understand why Tina thought it would be a good idea. But for that much money they would have needed to feed us Oysters Rockefeller, Truffle Stew, Champagne and the whole nine yards. Oh well, that's just my two cents!

@sharonvickers146 2 месяца назад

I just returned in March from a 3-month stay in Tavira (85 days, so I had a bit of a buffer on the 90 day rule). Because I rent directly from a property management firm, it is much cheaper than going through places like AirB&B, VRBO or an aparthotel. I had a lovely self-contained house all to myself within a 5 minute walk to the Roman Bridge (1 bedroom/1 bathroom, 2 outdoor patios, a fully equipped kitchen and sitting room) and it was just less than 3,000 euros for the entire time. I prefer that to a hotel environment, as there is more privacy and less hustle and bustle around me...but of course to each their own. I think it is worth finding a property management firm where you wish to go and contact them direct to get prices for your preferred dates. Happy travels, everyone...

Love your videos, very helpful. I just priced a flight yesterday with Air Canada to Lisbon or Faro. Lie-flat seats $2400. Economy $550. But with my points: $131 for lie flat business class!

@pattylyman7907 2 месяца назад

Love Tina's views. We scrimped and saved to retire and can now afford the "little luxury" of upgrades. Thats why our trip to Alaska in Aug is a " money isnt an issue" trip Spend it!! Enjoy it!!I bet she didnt have to twist your arm Norm ❤❤❤️

@wcg66 2 месяца назад

Good for you for splurging on the flight upgrades! I’m 6’5” so I struggle in economy class despite having to bear it throughout my career. Now I’m retired, I’m flying in comfort or not at all. Our first long term trip likely will be to the Algarve!

@ronnie9187 2 месяца назад

It is definitely worth the extra cost. I often sit with my 6'2 already with my knees against the front seat, which is tolerable on short flights but not on long flights. Booking an upgrade at the flight exit or comfort plus often gives you that extra bit of room for long flights. Certainly if you as tall as you are.

@davidbaillieul109 2 месяца назад

Great video, we watched it twice. We did a 3 week trip to Portugal in March. Nice one week hotel stays Lisbon, Portugal and the Algarve. It worked out to $180 CAD per day food included. We found that we could eat in non tourist restraunts + some groceries for less than the cost of groceries in Canada. The food in Portugal was actually much better. BUDGET TIP: always subtract the costs you would have had to pay back in Canada ( heat, groceries, entertainment, gas, etc ) from your actual trip costs. That shows you the real net cost of the trip and should you to justify more travel.

@thetiredtourist3927 2 месяца назад

Club Class is nice... but the $5000. extra goes a long way for car rental, upgraded hotel, more dinners out ...all for a 6 1/2 hour flight. But hey if money is no problem...

@stevewilson5292 2 месяца назад

Agreed. We will fly Business Class for the 12+ hour flights - there's an obvious improvement in the travel experience over those longer durations. But after doing many of those longer flights, a trans-Atlantic flight almost seems like a puddle jump and I wouldn't want to pay much extra for such a "short" run. I'd spend the money more as you suggest - at destination.

Well hey there. Enjoyed your video on Portugal. Gave us comparisons on price. Fort Lauderdale eh? Yes must be on upcoming cruise. We have booked here in Tavares for next year. Being a cottage, we do not have hotel ammenities such as house cleaning done for us but we love it and would compare to your summers at the trailer so I can understand why you would go for aparthotels makes sense to me. We do not have as high as temp in central Tavares as you have in Ft Lauderdale but that's good with me. We plan to take a last min cruise when here next year for 3 months. Enjoy the rest of your winter holiday xx

I love that you treated yourself to the great flight! When I fly RT from the east coast of the U.S. to Europe, I purchase economy and then use both my American Airlines points and about $700 to upgrade to biz class. Else I fly Saga Class on Iceland Air. Yes, it’s just 7-8 hrs depending on my destination, but it really sets the tone for the trip and it’s so nice.

Really enjoy watching your videos. We just returned from 6 weeks in Albufeira where we stayed in an Airbnb…which we loved. We agree about the Paladim…we stayed there last year for the month of February. We found it really dated and the cleaning was non-existent. But the price was about half of what they’re charging this year. We liked the restaurant and bar downstairs…as well as the hair salon on the main floor. Natalina is a great stylist.

@dobiechic 2 месяца назад

Thanks for the info on Albufeira! We’ll be heading there next Spring. This will be our third trip to Portugal and we also fly from Toronto on Air Transat. We book the basic fare then add Option Plus for around $200 each. Includes priority check in, one bag , seat selection and a drink. There is a small number of seats in twos near the back and we always book them if available. Definitely not as good as club class but for the difference in fare, we feel it’s pretty close and a LOT cheaper.

I flew around for decades (I’m 6’3) often getting my knees crushed by the passenger in front etc etc. now that I only fly a few times a year,it’s business class. We save money on other things throughout the year. Far as I’m concerned,the extra comfort on a longer flight is worth every penny. (Within reason)🤣😂

Thanks for sharing your trip. We were in Albufeira for the month of February as well. We very much can identify with your experiences particulariy with your transportation. We certainly used Vamus for out of town and Bolt for in town travel when walking due to rainy weather or distance was not practical. Your assessment of Bolt was spot on. Bolt is less expensive in Albufeira. But in travel outside of Albufeira, we found Uber was a bit better in rates. Of course the Drivers in most cases work for both and vehicles are equipped to respond to customers using the Bolt or Uber app. We will be returning for 2025 trip to Albufeira as well. Enjoyed your summary.

The prices are off the charts compared to a few years ago We may use a company called Portugal Get Aways for our next escapade to Portugal. Glad you had a great time and living it up!

I frequently go to Portugal and the Algarve and 14,000 is quite high but everyone has their own desires. Although I wouldn't spend that much on a flight, I always try to find a deal for under 800$, you are right Tina. You should splurge and treat yourself if that is what you enjoy. I'm sure some others spend even more then 14,000. Just so people out there know you can pay less for accomodations and food just depends what you are looking for. Your travel tips on the local buses were awesome. Thanks for sharing!
