The Versatility of Indie

Friday, March 1st, 2013

When planning a round the world trip, choosing where to go and when is a difficult decision. There are so many variables, and at the beginning of the planning process, your route is constantly changing.

With Indie, it’s easy to stay on top of flight costs in the planning process because of the ease of which you can search different routes and price them out.

Instead of just writing about it, we want to show you!

We started with a base trip – a round the world trip from New York City, with the following itinerary: New York > Marrakech > Rome > Moscow >overland> Beijing > Bangkok > Los Angeles > New York City, with a price of $2821USD, all taxes and fees included. I timed myself with a stop watch, and this initial search took 2 minutes, 46 seconds to create and price.

We wanted to take that base trip and tweak it – creating 4 similar trips, showing off how quick and easy it is to customize any trip to make it your own:

  • RTW from Chicago: We changed the departure city from New York to Chicago and added an overland segment in Europe. The new route is: Chicago > Marrakech > Rome >overland>  Budapest > Moscow >overland> Beijing > Bangkok > Los Angeles > Chicago. The price was very similar, $2874USD taxes and fees included. Time to make changes and get a new price: 1 minute, 54 seconds.
  • RTW from Sydney: It’s easy to tweak no matter where you live. For this trip, we changed the departure city to Sydney. The new route is: Sydney > New York > Marrakech > Rome > Moscow >overland> Beijing > Bangkok > Sydney, with a price of $3775USD, all taxes and fees included. Time: 2 minutes, 11 seconds.
  • RTW from London: We didn’t want to leave our London friends out. For this trip, we changed the departure city to London and tweaked the itinerary and dates just a bit. The new route is: London > Moscow >overland> Beijing > Bangkok > Los Angeles > New York City > Marrakech > London, with a price of $2678USD, all taxes and fees included. Time: 1 minute, 38 seconds
  • RTW from Singapore: Lots of our readers live in SE Asia, so we re-created the trip for them, too. The new route is: Singapore > Los Angeles > New York City > Marrakech > Rome > Moscow >overland> Beijing > Singapore, with a price of $2705USD, all taxes and fees included. Time: 1 minute, 40 seconds

It took me a total of 10 minutes, 9 seconds to search and price all 5 of these trips. The best of our competitors typically take at least 24 hours to get a price on a similar trip, and that’s just ONE trip. Any changes made take longer and involve a lot of back and forth between you and a customer service rep. With Indie, you can do it all yourself in minutes!

What’s the best trip that you can find for the cost? How long did it take you to search?

New RTW Ticket Report

Tuesday, November 6th, 2012

Planning a round the world trip is a pretty huge undertaking that requires lots of time and research.  Much of this research usually has to do with airfare, as that is the most expensive part of your trip.

Every time someone decides to take a RTW trip, they have to make an important decision - buy a round the world ticket or one-ways.  We tried to simplify this process by publishing our free, downloadable Around the World Airfare Report in March 2012.

We followed that up by publishing a second version in June.  We knew, and admitted, all along that there was a flaw in our research when it came to searching prices on the DIY (Do It Yourself) method of purchasing one-ways.

In the first two reports, we searched all one-way flights over the course of a few days.  When a round the world traveler chooses this option, they usually do so to have the  ultimate flexibility. This means they won’t be purchasing all their flights up front like we searched.

So for our latest version of the report, which is actually an addendum to version 2, we simulated what a search would look like from the road.  We searched one of the same routes we searched in version 2 of the report, and in addition to that initial search back in April, we searched each leg 6 weeks, 1 month, 2 weeks, and every day for the final week before the flight to see how the prices fluctuated based on different search times.

Check out our findings by downloading the free DIY Around the World Airfare Report.

If you haven’t downloaded either of the other reports, you may want to check those out, too, as they each offer something different:

  • Version 1: The Definitive Report on Round the World Tickets – this report analyzes 3 different routes after shopping with multiple companies who specialize in round the world tickets, including the airline alliances.  It also prices the DIY model.
  • Version 2:  Around the World Airfare Research Report – this report analyzes 2 different routes after shopping with multiple companies who specialize in RTW tickets.  The alliances are not included in this report.  It also prices the DIY model with the current addendum at the end.

If you are ready to hit the road, then check out these five fares that we’ve found on Indie, BootsnAll’s Multi-Stop Trip Planner:
