Travel Thrifting: Reselling Unused Bookings Gains Traction

Travel Thrifting: Reselling Unused Bookings Gains Traction

Imagine if you could buy someone else's vacation plans!

That's what travel thrifting is.

Websites like SpareFare let people sell flights and hotels they can't use anymore.

Buyers get discounts, sometimes big ones, especially if they're willing to travel last-minute.

When someone sells, the website holds the money until the trip is done.

It's great for people with free time and a sense of adventure.

This way, travellers with flexibility can grab a trip from someone who had to change plans, at a potentially better price.
