I Want That Flight
I Want That Flight
During my weekly walk and catch up with friends, aka the WINOE’s (Women in Need of Entertainment), we decided that travel is a big priority for our impending ‘golden years’. None of us are getting any younger and the majority of us are either retired or semi-retired from full-time employment so we are fairly flexible with our time and we have fewer family commitments.
We recently made an unanimous decision to search for any bargain holiday deals for a girl’s getaway and take advantage of it if something appealing came along. When I get wind of the possibility of travel I instantly feel exhilaration. Travel and the chance to visit new and exotic places is what I love most in the world.
A New Flight Booking Website
So I tell the girls, “I have just heard about this great flight booking website called I Want That Flight. How it works, is that you enter the destination of where you would like to travel to and the website searches for all possible flights with both airlines and travel agencies. But the best thing is that if you are flexible with dates you can sign up for a travel alert and wait until the cheapest air fares become available”.
Some of us are subscribed directly to one of the airlines and get emailed specials on a regular basis, but not to one website that compares every airline. Some websites like Webjet or Expedia already do an air fare comparison, but they charge fees, unlike this new website. We agreed that I Want That Flight is definitely going to be the tool we need to get us on that bargain holiday in the near future.
How I Want That Flight Works
You can do a basic search from I Want That Flight’s home page and it will bring up all options for either domestic or international flights for specific dates, or if you are flexible with dates it will search for the cheapest flights. It then takes you directly to the airline’s booking page to book the flight.
How to Find The Cheapest Flights
As well as basic search from the homepage, there are pages specially set up to help find you the cheapest flights, based on how flexible your travel dates are. For example if I chose Bali as my destination:
Cheap Flights Melbourne to Denpasar (Bali), Indonesia.
Return flights shown.

What a great idea. It’s a pity I won’t be travelling anywhere for ages but I’ll pass the site on.
Yes I thought it was a great idea as well. I like the feature of finding out the cheapest travel deals and having a spontaneous holiday!
Fab! I haven’t heard of this site before but will definitely start using it.
It is a fab idea Jo. I for one will be using it frequently. :)
Thanks Kathy it sounds like a great site. I’m off to explore it.
You will be impressed I’m sure. It’s a great website.
What a great idea. I’ll be ducking over for a look – and for alerts for Bali next May.
You and me both Jo. We’ll be looking for a little holiday to Bali once we’ve sold our house.
I want all the flights, especially if Bali is involved! 😊
Yes Bali is definitely high on my travel radar too! #TeamLovinLife
Terrific idea, Kathy and I’m definitely signing up. I love the idea that you and your friends have come up with about booking a getaway. Thinking about travel is so exciting and once you book well the excitement just keeps building. Love the name WINOE’s – perfect! Thanks for the info and have a great week!
We are maybe looking a trip to Bali at the moment, but getting a group of 6 ladies to commit to a date is rather difficult! I can highly recommend this flight booking website. I have been using it for ages and it’s the best. #TeamLovinLife
This sounds like exactly like the kind of thing that would be perfect for us retirees!!
I’m definitely checking it out!!
XOXO

Great Jodie! I can highly recommend this flight comparison and booking site. I’ve been using it for a few years now. #TeamLovinLife
Thanks for sharing this, Kathy. I’ll check it out.
You won’t be disappointed Natalie. It’s a very user-friendly flight comparison and booking website. #TeamLovinLife
Yes I am signed up too. It breaks my heart every time I get an alert because we aren’t travelling this year, but one can always dream.
You and me both Jan! We’re not making too many travel plans at the moment which is killing me also. #TeamLovinLife
What a great idea for a website!
Yes it’s a very resourceful and user-friendly flight comparison and booking site. I use it always. #TeamLovinLife
Thanks for sharing about this website, Kathy! Keeping it in mind for future holiday planning. Hope you and the girls lock in a great getaway soon.

I’m sure we will. Last time we went to Krabi, Thailand, so who knows where we’ll end up this time. That’s the beauty of this website – it gives you the best deals to anywhere in the world. #TeamLovinLife
It’s a great idea. I love sites that offer you a chance to shop around and make comparisons.
I’m not as enamoured with travel though I guess, as you know. The thing I’m excited about re retirement is just not having to work!
Not having to work is not what it’s cracked up to be Deb. You still need to substitute some sort of stimuli in lieu of work. I’m hoping to keep working part-time for a while yet. This flight comparison website is one of the best ones I’ve encountered.
This is one I haven’t heard of. I do love these sites which make holiday planning so easy.
Yes this particular website is very good. I can highly recommend it. #TeamLovinLife
WINOE’s. LOL!! I want that flight to London. I’ve not been there yet and can’t wait to hop from there to Paris to Greece and beyond.
Will bookmark this post. #teamlovinlife
Well we are women in need of entertainment and we all like wine!!! I think a flight to London would be fantastic. I’m yet to discover a lot of Europe and hope to remedy this soon.
