"Sorry Matteo, but how do you find these prices?" I get this question dozens of times a day. Whenever I recount a trip of mine where I paid little for the ticket there are so many messages I receive from readers, casual and otherwise, of TFC.

Of course these are often award tickets, booked with points and therefore not the result of special offers or discounted tickets. I don't believe in the VPN technique, much less to the one on Wednesday. I am much more pragmatic, when certain promos pop up, if I like them I book them on the fly.
The whatsapp channel of The Flight Club
This is the most direct and fastest way to communicate the most important news, those that must be caught on the fly. I will never send trivial news, but only those news items that need to get ASAP to the typical TFC reader: breaking news, special offers, error do's and promotions reserved only for readers of The Flight Club.
For all other news, the unhurried kind, there is the weekly newsletter.
Some examples of the latest messages
Yesterday I posted a possibility, very interesting, to fly from Rome to China in business class for less than 1400€. when I send the message I always add a link to Google or Skyscanner, depending on where I find the fare.
In addition to offers, the group also serves to inform the community and TFC readers in real time about problems in air transportation, strikes, disruptions, and major disruptions, such as in the case of the recent snowfall in Germany.
