Courier Air Travel Handbook: Learn How To Travel For Next to Nothing, Around The World

This book's M.O. may be outdated as the economy downturns. The news tells of pilots living in mobile trailers on airport tarmacs because they are paid next to nothing more commonly now. Anymore, airport security is just weird for the everyday traveler! Yet like any good idea, there will be other ways to apply what can be learned by reading a book of this nature. I consider it a book whose central idea is one of creative resourcefulness, and I am glad I now have it in my library!

The straight review.

The first poster said:"The 152 pages of large type, photos and unneeded banner separators created the impression of lot of fluff. The same text could be contained in 1/2 as many pages."There is no photos in the whole book. The book is 200 pages not including glossery and index. And its normal type.To set the record straight, this book gives me much more info than is available on the web. Some of it is common sense and fluff but even so you will only get a tenth of the info in this book on the web. The company resources in the book are outdated but this book is printed in 99, resources likely gathered in 98. Take it for what its worth. Go to the library and pay $0 for the book. If your in it for the money its better than $50 for a yearly website membership.

Good Idea for Discount Travel

I originally purchased this book with the idea of traveling from Chicago to Japan to visit my sister who is teaching English in Tokyo. Ten months later and I have done a total of four trips (Japan twice, London and San Paulo, Brazil). This is the best travel secret I have found to date. Although, it takes some planning and flexibility, if you want cheap travel, this is the way to do it. I found the book was well produced and accurately researched. I have only skimmed through the other books on this subject, but I would have no problem recommending this book to anyone.
