Flight Tribe

Author: Kate Acaster

Kate Acaster is Chief Editor at Flight Tribe. She writes about practical travel planning, budget airlines, baggage rules, city breaks, beach holidays and good hotels that do not cost daft money.

Kate has travelled through Europe, South America and beyond, usually with a notebook, a half-formed plan and a strong opinion on airport snacks. At Flight Tribe, her work focuses on helping UK travellers understand what is included, what costs extra, and whether a trip is worth booking at the price shown.

How Kate works
Kate checks the details that can change the value of a trip, including cabin-bag rules, airline fees, hotel location, seasonality, travel dates and booking conditions. She is especially interested in offers that look useful on the surface but need a proper reader-first check before they are worth recommending.

Editorial standards
Flight Tribe covers deals and travel advice for readers first. Affiliate links do not decide whether an offer is worth writing about.

BA Holidays: Algarve week from £319

British Airways aircraft taking off from runway

A 4-star Algarve week from £319pp is a lovely low-season BA Holidays find, especially with Gatwick flights, breakfast, and a checked bag included.

Zante 14-night holiday from £138pp with bags

Two weeks in Zante for £138pp is a ridiculous early-summer price compared with the roughly £400pp package prices we saw in the same search, especially with breakfast, checked bags and transfers included.
