I’m have issues booking flights. I always feel like I am getting screwed I put it off. But fold invariably one week before my flight.

I like airbnb and vrbo they are simple I know what I am getting what sacrfices or indulgences I am making.

Is there a way to simply shop for airlines without becoming manical about it, employing complex strategies?

I only travel two to three times a year on average so I things that are point based only work to a limited extent.

Anyway what strategies do you employ? Is there a go to website, or do you do a ton of comparison shopping, how helpful is bundling, rental cars at the very least.
