Reduce travel budgets . 2 Years, 9 Months ago Karma: 0  
I would like to know the shortest route from Illinois to Portland in Oregon in the shortest possible time. I stay in Springfield. So I would like to have details about airports, where to board and where to get off so that travel time is minimized. And also I do not wish to change flights and would like to travel directly .

You can log on to http://optifly.com for convenient air travel in all respects. The site is very user-friendly and you can enter your starting and end destinations for available flights and their costs. By doing this, you will also come to know whether there are any direct flights or hopping ones and can choose among them.

As mentioned above, transportation and flight costs are less susceptible to drastical reductions. Let's see how you can make economies on the whole trip by reducing certain services



Transportation: flight, taxis, rental cars, bus, subway, etc.

- in some cases renting a car can reduce expenses, in other cases it increases; make sure you only rent if it is cheaper than other means of transport

- try the low cost airlines whenever possible, but on long-haul flights few of them operate

- for low cost airlines make sure you book in advance, but if you fly with a conventional carrier, then check the last minute offers, they can cost you up to 75 % less than the normally published fares when paid in advance

- subways and other rail networks are more expensive than buses, but cheaper than taxis; our advice: avoid taxis whenever possible, take rail as often as possible, but if costs run high, substitute rail/subway with buses or trams

- buy weekly or other passes for public transportation, this will help you spare time and money: less waiting in lines, less cost per trip

- pack smartly, bring light items, take light bags, otherwise the airline will charge you; especially in the case of low cost airlines this is a problem
