A TRAVELLER has revealed a hack that holidaymakers can use to get cheap flights for their upcoming trips.
With flight prices on the rise, finding creative ways to cut the cost of air travel has become more important than ever.
While there are ways to find cheap holidays, tikToker _footluce has shared a potential way people can purchase cheap flights by using a website called Soar Fare.
In a recent video, she said: "If you want to travel, or you're a budget traveller, or whatever, I need to put you onto something because this is such a good way to find cheap flights.
"Not only can you find the cheapest flights possible, save money for those flights, you also get money towards those flights."
She explained that budding holidaymakers pay a subscription fee, starting at $20 (£16.49) per month, in exchange for points that can be used to purchase flights.

The video has been viewed more than 5,000 times, but not everyone was convinced by the cheap flight trick.
