Travel in 2025 is expected to become more expensive, as predicted by travel sites such as Going and The Points Guy.

Airlines are reducing routes, and budget airlines face financial challenges, which leads to increasing ticket prices. Some destinations, however, remain more affordable, for example, flights to Canada and certain locations in the US offer cheaper options. Travel experts suggest exploring lesser-known destinations or traveling during off-peak seasons to save money.

Katy Nastro, a travel expert from Going, recommends flexibility with travel plans to find deals, like visiting Sicily or Scandinavia instead of popular places like Paris or London. Tools like price alerts on apps like Skyscanner or Hopper can help you monitor flight costs. Even after booking, if ticket prices drop, you may be able to claim travel credits if you booked in certain ticket classes. Planning ahead and staying flexible can make your 2025 travel experience more affordable despite overall cost increases.

Difficult words: lesser-known (not as well known as others of the same kind), off-peak (taking place at a time when demand is less), flexibility (the ability to change or adapt easily).
