All the airlines work on a yield management system. The system calculates an airfare based on such factors as the season, local events, competition, time of the year and many more. The demand for an individual flight route at one of such times is then calculated into a percentage of airfares that are available. By means of figures from previous similar circumstances, that is the same time last year, the airfare is calculated based upon the natural demand that should arise. To put it simply, the earlier you book your tickets the better the price you will get, although in some cases it is possible to find cheaper flights after the earliest possible time to book, usually because the metrics used to calculate the original price have changed.

1.Do a lot of advance preparation and collect as much information as possible about what to expect. Be well prepared and this will minimize your risks and keep you safe when traveling. It is good to have an emergency plan if a situation requires it thus think ahead. If they appear try to preserve common sense and don’t panic.
2. Wear clothes that are appropriate for the culture or climate and that don’t insult inhabitants of a given country. It is a habit for women in Asian, African, and countries in the Middle East not revealing clothing in public to wear as well as not to show arms and legs. The safest way is to inform yourself what is worn by the locals and to dress similarly.
2. Carry as much cash as you will need for the day and just one credit card. It is a good practice to keep them in different separate places. Women have their own places like a bra, thus even if you get ripped off you will be able to take a taxi to a hotel.
3. Documents like passport, extra credit cards, your ATM card for cash on your trip and other travel documents leave at your hotel’s safe. This may help you avoid many headaches afterwards. Simply carry a photocopy of your passport instead.
4.Carry your purse small purse with a long strap that can go across your chest. Purses with mesh in the strap are not easy to cut. Things like backpacks are extremely easy to rob without your noticing it.
5. Have a card with the name and address of your hotel on you in case you get lost. Do not expect people to speak English in non English speaking countries. A small phrase book may come in handy. You should also plan your rout beforehand in order to be certain about your trip.
6. It is a good idea to carry an international cell phone that have the number of your hotel and your local embassy or consulate. In many places the emergency services operators simply do not speak English.
7. Be careful of strangers offering you best places for any purpose. Politely decline the proposals and you won’t end up dissapointed.
