How to Find the Cheapest Flight Ticket

As somebody who is interested in Aviation, had worked in Aviation industry for years and as a traveller, I would like to share with you one of the best way to find the best price and cheapest ticket in the world.

Firstly, I want to say that; there is no open way or trick to find a cheap ticket. There are only some ways to search a cheapest or price/performance tickets. Also don't believe some people who are saying that from this website or agency you can get more cheaper. No! You can find and learn the real ticket price only from official airline or tour companies websites, call centers or face to face. But in this topic we will talk about how to find the cheapest ticket in all legal and official ways.
One of the best way to find your best price or price/performance flight tickets online: Skyscanner

Skyscanner is a website that you can search and list all flights between thousands of destination in hundreds of airline companies, all around the world. Skyscanner is offering it's services in tens of languages with tens of money currency. When we said currency, we mean you can search your prices in a currency that you want and you can buy like that. 

On the other hand, Skyscanner is not selling any flight ticket or something, it's only a service that you can search your best price or cheapest flight ticket from all around the world without any costs! Yes you heard it well, it's totally free to use and there is no commission or something.

Let's start to learn, how to use Skyscanner for finding cheapest flight ticket all around the world.

1) Firstly, you should enter Skyscanner page and you should choose, are you looking for a round-trip (go and back) flight ticket or only one way flight ticket. Also there is a 3. option for more flights.

2) You should write where are you planning to fly from? to From section and where are you planning to fly? to To section. You can write city name, airport name, whatever you want. But one trick is here: there are more airports at some of the cities around the world. If it's not that important for you to fly which airport, choose all airports (any). If you choose any, you can find more flights with more options, so it means cheaper flight tickets.

On the other hand, yes it's not that much useful for everybody but you can even choose to write only a Country name, then you can see which city, airline or airport is the cheapest / best price option in that country.

3) After choosing our departure and arrival destinations, you should click and set dates to Depart and Return sections. Here it is there is another very good option and trick. If you don't need to go in a certain date or time;

For example: 10th of September You would like to go to Stockholm, Sweden from Istanbul, Turkey. But prices are so high. There is an option to see all cheapest prices day by day at all month of September. You should click again to Depart area and then you should choose "Whole Month" option near to the "Specific Date". After choosing this option and selecting the month which is you are planning to go, Skyscanner will show you the best price flight tickets on a calendar. You can check day by day, which is good for you.

By the way, there is an another option at the end of at searching page "Direct Flights Only". If you activate this button, it will search all flights without any other connections. But If you find the best price flight tickets, I don't advice you to click this one.

After arranging all settings, there will be a page like below which is showing you which airlines, which times, how much price, how long etc. all details. You can also change your options again from the left side of the page. If you decide about one flight, you should click and there will be some options and you will choose if one of the cheapest flight ticket price is good for you.

I will write more about tickets and accommodations, tricks and how to find best prices or cheaper price sooner.

How to get Austrian Visa, Residence and Working Permit

Hallo!

In this article, I will write about Austrian Residence and Working Permit procedures. Also I will try to infrom you about how to do and how is the process, generally at Vienna.

Before starting, I think we have talk about Austria a little time. Austria is existing in the Middle Europe and actually, we can say that Austria is totally center of Middle Europe. Vienna is Austria's capital and the biggest city of Austria. Especially due to it's geopolitics position, strong Austrian economy and high life standarts; Vienna is one of the most livable city in Europe. That's why it's also taking a lot of immigration application.

When we said high life standarts, we have to specify that Vienna is selecting as the most livable city in the world for 5 years. Why not? I think they have right to choose this beautiful city because also it has one of the easiest and useful transportation system, nice city planning, saved history and historical buildings, arts, engineering, green areas, big parks, regular walking and bicyle ways... Shortly, system is going very well for it's citizens in this city, Vienna.

Now, time to talk about Residence and/or Working Permits. Firstly, there are some regulations -as expected in all countries- and requirements to apply this permits. You have to be eligible to one of these points below to apply Austrian Residence and/or Working Permits.

- Immigration status: Clear. I wish and I hope we all won't become a immigrant one day.

- Defection: I advice you another countries for defection, there are more willing to open countries for your application, if you have a very good reason.

- Being first level-blood relative of one Austrian Citizen: Like being married with an Austrian or having Austrian father/mother or having Austrian borned baby etc.

- Family connection with one of permanent residence permit holder (not a citizen): You can take same as above. But this process is more hard and it takes more time and effort to get your visa or residence permit.

- Long-term residence for education purpose: One of the best and %90 guarantee way that probably you can get your visa or residence permit. Embassy and your university will support you about what to do.

- Residence for working/investment purporse: If one of the international or strong German company invites you with a formal letter and contract, it's also very easy process to get your visa or residence and working permit. For investers; it's changing according to how big and what kind of investment(s) it will be.

- Others: There are a lot of other special options. For example there are so many European Union projects under Erasmus+ and like EVS. I will write another blog for EVS sooner.

NOTE: For certain and more clear informations please contact or check official places. These advices and informations are written for making some ideas and showing ways.

If you have eligible for one of these requirements and would like to move Austria, generally you have 2 options.

Applying from your country to Austrian Embassy:

In this process, firstly you have to check which embassy is closer and giving service to you. After you have to check which documents you needed for a proper application. Actually the best way is calling or directly going to the embassy to get healty and clear informations.

Applying in Austria:
In some special situations, even if you have only tourist visa, you can make your application at Austria while you are in Austria at that moment. One of these is marriage. For example; after marriage, you can directly apply in Austria and if you are lucky, you don't need to go back to your country and apply again.

If you are applying somehow you will need for sure:

- Passport

- 2-3 Mug shot / photo which is taken in last 6 months for every applications.

Other documents are changin according to which or what purposes you are applying.

For example; If you are applying purpose of marriage to Austrian Residence and/or Working Permit, you will need these documents below + above documents:

- Marriage Certificate (German or English translation probably will needed)

- Leasing contract about where will you live.

After collecting all documents, you have to apply yourself to the MA 35 which is Immigration and Citizenship (Municipal Department 35). I advice you to check opening and working hours before you go because they are not working same times everyday.

Important note:
Austrian Visa, Residence and Working Permit processes generally realizing in this cases. But your application and approval times can be shorter or longer according to your case. Sometimes your process can take 1 month to get 1 year Residence Permit, sometimes it can take only 2 weeks to get 5 years of Residence and Working Permit etc.

How to get Hungarian Visa, Residence and Working Permit

Sziastok Lovely People,

In this topic, I would like to tell you some tricks and clues for getting long-term Hungarian Visa.

After getting your passport and your Visa from Hungarian Embassy of your city/country, embassy officer will also give you a paper which is showing that where you have to go for completing your Visa process in Hungary. You have to go this place in 1 month after you arrived Hungary. Otherwise you can have a big problems. That's why, I advice you to go as soon as possible, especially in first 2 weeks, in case if they needed something more.

Firstly, I should inform you that these offices are not working regularly. Their working schedules and opening times are changing day to another day. So, firstly you should check their working hours. I also advice you that you have go as much as early that you can, because probably there will be a line.  

Cool Entrance

Before you directly enter to the office or building like above, you need to bring your passport, passport copy, visa copy, your mug shot / picture (it must be same on visa picture), original of your lease contract for flat etc. and one copy for it (they will ask and maybe take this one). If you are going for Erasmus or some kind of different purpose, probably they can ask some more documents. So, you should bring your related documents and letters with you just in case. Generally, they are only checking them and then giving at back to you.
By the way, when you entered to the office, you have to take a number for line. If you are coming for first time, information officer will give you a 2 piece of form-paper that you have to fill them. Actually, those documents are almost same like you filled up before for embassy process before you getting your Visa before coming to Hungary. 

After you filled up those documents and after giving them to the officer, he/she will give you number for the line and you will start to wait.

As I said before, when your turn came, probably they will ask all documents that I mentioned above. Maybe they can ask some questions like; why did you come? what is your purpose? or just a friendly; how did you find Hungary? Did you like it?...
Don't be shy, you already got your visa, it's just a process, if you have all documents that they needed, it will be done sooner.

After your documentation process, officer will give you a document which you have to get sign from your lease contract owner ( landlord, dormitory management etc. ) and you have to bring them back.

After bringing that document and if there's any missing document that you have bring, probably you will get your Residence Permit and/or Working Permit at that time. If your card is still not ready, they will give you a specific date to come and get your card.

Generally, system is working nicely. I can't say they are fast but we have to accept it for a long time permit. Also I didn't see any officer that making you nervous or upset, they are trying their best and they were nice.

I wish you good luck!

Note: I got these experiences while I am applying for a Residence Permit for Erasmus+ EVS purpose. I strongly advice you to check official informations before beginning to process. I just wanted to show some ways and tricks.
