Book Flights with a Burner Email and Save $20 a Ticket

Airlines love jacking up prices once they know you’re interested—search a flight, and suddenly it’s $50 more. Here’s a thrifty workaround some people have used to save $20+ per ticket: book with a burner email. Sites like 10minutemail.com or temp-mail.org give you a temporary address that vanishes after an hour. Sign up for airline deal alerts with it, grab the cheap fare, then ditch the email before they track you. Last month, someone snagged a $79 round-trip to Chicago—same flight jumped to $105 on their personal email the next day. Pair it with incognito mode (free trick) to dodge cookies, and you’re golden. Bonus: Use a cheap VPN to spoof your location—flights from “smaller” cities can drop $10 more. Some people have claimed to cut $60 off a family trip doing this. It’s not rocket science, just a sneaky way to outsmart algorithms (and protect yourself from other malicious threats). https://amzn.to/3XHsfr2. Thrifty travel starts with staying one step ahead.
