Johannesburg – The Rejuvenating City of South Africa

Last week I was on holiday trip to Johannesburg the economic power house of South Africa. I was fortunate enough that my travel company was offering business class discounts on United Airlines air tickets to Johannesburg. My flight arrived in the late evening and I immediately shifted to the Hotel where my travel agent had made the bookings. During the hotel journey I was stunned to see the lights of the skyscrapers that were shimmering from far off.

While I was waiting in the lobby at the hotel I met a guy who worked as a ticketing manager in a travel firm. He informed me that there were several airlines that offered reasonably priced or cheap business class flights to Johannesburg and if your are comfortable with your traveling dates then you can even get handsome discounts over business class air tickets as well as on other air plane tickets. After spending a quality time with the travel chap I went to my hotel room to have a sound sleep.

The next morning I prepared myself to explore the most hip-hop city of South Africa. My business class ticket came with a brochure that contained a lot of information about the city’s local attractions. I started my day by visiting the Apartheid Museum, where I had a glance at many pictures and videos that said a lot about the South African past. Johannesburg Art Gallery and South African National Museum of Military History were the other two places where I paid my visit and learnt a lot about the history of Johannesburg.

While I was returning to my hotel in a cab, the cab driver offered me a two-day trip around the city at very low fare. He also told me that he knew few local travel agents who could have arranged inexpensive flight tickets or rather cheap domestic flights for the nearby connecting cities if I wished to stay for a little longer. I was quite happy to get the discount but as I could not afford to stay long I felt bad too. The next day my cab driver came on time and we both were prepared to further explore the city.

We went to see the botanical gardens, which presented unique plant species. Walter Sisulu Botanical Gardens formed one of the last green areas remaining within Johannesburg. Lots of birds, including the endangered Black Eagle were other attractions of the park. I even saw the picture of the same black eagle at the airport where my business flight made its landing. There were several other parks, which I could have seen but was quite tired and thus asked my cab to drop me back to the hotel.

My return business class flight was in the afternoon and thus I could pay visit to the other parks that were left behind. Montecasino Bird Gardens, which possessed many birds and other small wildlife, was indeed refreshing. Since the time came to leave the wonderful city that is known to world as a powerful economic centre also I checked out from the hotel and left for the airport. I called up my travel company Fare Buzz, the America’s leading Travel Company to ask the confirmation about the flight ticket for cheap rates to my home land.

Rome: The Eternal City

During the high School years I read a lot about the Roman Empire that once flourished in the eternal city of Italy, Rome. Fortunately, this time I got an opportunity to visit Rome with my cousin to the most fascinating city, of the world. In the evening I sat down with the yellow pages to get low fares for the air flights that connect United States to Rome. After making a call to few travel companies I finally booked the business class tickets with Continental Airlines, which were offering quite reasonable flight deals to Rome.

My cousin suggested that the best way to make preparations for Rome travel was to know a little more about the city. While I was searching for the cities best attractions, I came across many travel companies that were offering low priced or cheap business class flights to Rome. Also there were several sites that were advertising the international airlines to Rome. After discussing about the major visiting attractions of the city we both packed our stuffs and got ready to explore the city.

Before setting our journey I made a point to recheck the air plane tickets to Rome. While sitting in my business class seat I read a lot about the beautiful city of Rome from the travel book, which was provided by the business class airlines. The most amazing thing about Romans was that apart from feeling proud they also have an unbound passion for Rome. My cousin, Michal gets along with strangers very quickly. This time also while onboard she could easily get along the airhostess in the business flight.

The airhostess familiarized her with the local lingo of Rome. She even told that the airline often offered inexpensive flight tickets to Rome. Our flight landed in the evening and we immediately went to the hotel where our travel consultant made reservation for us. On our way Michal shared about the talks she had with the airhostess. The airhostess told her about the business class discounts that the airlines offered to other European cities. While Michal was busy describing her experience with the new friend, I really enjoyed the shimmering lights of the market streets.

The next day we went to the Roman Forum and its neighboring places and were quite overwhelmed to see the magnificent site. Along with the long run polished Vatican museum we also strolled around the sanctuary of St. Peter’s Basilica. The city also possessed the treasure of marvelous churches where every church was unique in itself. After spending the quality time in sightseeing we went to dine at a nearby restaurant that offered delicious Italian food.

Once we were through with our dinner, we returned back to the hotel and packed our stuffs for home. Although our trip was quite small yet we learnt a lot about the city. Despite the abundant availability of travel agents, Fare Buzz the leading Travel Company has been providing easy and best solutions that include reasonable fares for business class flights to all its clients.

New York: The Vibrant Metropolis of the World


The charismatic city of United States, New York has always been my dream city. Fortunately, this time I got a chance to pay a small visit to my aunt, who recently shifted to this vibrant city. I surfed on the net to find the best flight deals that are offered by the airlines. I booked my cheap air ticket with American Airlines that also offers direct flight to New York. The city is indeed the world’s most vivacious metropolis that attracts visitors from across the world to earn and enjoy their living.

My flight arrived in the evening and I rushed out from the airport to my aunt who was eagerly waiting for me outside. While moving ahead to my aunt’s residence I saw many hotel lights gleaming with fabulous color lights. While seating in by cheap air flight I read about the data that said about the city witnessing a large amount of immigrants from across the world. There were many airlines such as Continental Airlines, US airways and United Airlines that offered cheap airline tickets to the city.

According to the data the above airlines along with reasonable air tickets also offered cheap domestic flights and thus encouraged travel among the national as well as international travelers. My aunt stopped at a nearby restaurant to have some snacks and then we could move ahead with other plans. While dining she told that the city had a great fast life and also offered quite extensive opportunities to all visitors who either traveled through discounted airlines tickets or cheap flight tickets to New York.

After having the delicious brunch we both moved ahead to my aunt’s house, which was quite near to the Wall Street. The next morning I was overwhelmed when my aunt decided to take a break from her office and accompany me for the sightseeing. We packed our breakfast and were all prepared to explore the pulsating city of United States. Our first attraction was the Wall Street, which was quite in news during the economic meltdown. People walked around with great enthusiasm for work.

While crossing the main lane I came across a travel consultant shop that was offering great airfares for several destinations across the world. While my aunt was away for some work I went inside the shop to know more about the cheap flight deals that the travel agent had to offer.  I was taken by surprise that there were several airlines that offered affordable cheap international flights along with cheapest airline tickets. I immediately called up my travel consultant and asked him to book cheap flight for my return journey.

Later in the day we went to the Battery Park that is well known among the locals for its panoramic views. Then we went to the Memory Foundation place which was at the centre of the New World Trade Centre. The place brought alive the tragic moment that took place years back and I just could not stop the tears rolling down my cheeks. We paid our condolence to the victims of September 11 attacks there and then returned back to our home.

Although I had a really small trip to the vivacious city, it was one of the most memorable one of all. Nowadays several travel companies offer travel packages to New York, but Fare Buzz, the America’s leading travel company along with cheap airfares also offers cheap tickets to New York.

Tokyo: The Sci-Fi City of The World


I have been hearing about Tokyo, the hi-tech city since childhood from one of my uncle who has been living in Tokyo for the past few years. On every thanksgiving visit, he used to get gifts for us, which were quite uncommon in our place too. This time my uncle invited me to know more about this beautiful city. I was overwhelmed when I received an invitation call from him and immediately called up my travel company to book a business class air travel to the city.

Thanks to my travel agent who quickly arranged a last minute flight with Delta Airlines to the city. While seating in my business class seat I recalled all the stories and life experience, which uncle used to share with us. He always said that Tokyo was more than being a futuristic city. Fortunately my business class airlines also offered me a brochure that said a lot about this city. After going through the brochure I learnt that the city rose from a small town to the world’s largest agglomerated city in a very short span of time.

My flight landed in the evening and I saw my uncle waiting outside the airport. While driving to my uncle’s residence I was surprised to see the skyscrapers illuminating with sprinkling hoardings. Though the passenger sitting next to me in the business flight told a lot many big names but I found many more than what I expected. While coming out from the airport I noticed many travel agents contact numbers displayed near the airport wall who offered discounted or cheap ticket for business class flights.

Airlines such as American Airlines, United Airlines and US Airways were on the top display that offered amazing airfares on several plane tickets to Tokyo. My eyes could hardly move away from the gleaming lights of the shops around that we passed by. I remember uncle once told us about the disastrous earthquake that completely ruined the city. Despite being sensitive to the natural disaster Tokyo rebuilt itself from the cradle of its own dust.

Before de-boarding the airlines, the crew members informed us that the vertical city supported a population of 12 million. My uncle’s apartment was on the 20th floor, and despite the lift facility he uncle took stairs for half way. I was quite excited to explore the city and thus requested my uncle to at least take me out for a dinner at a nearby restaurant. During my last business class air travel I received a discounted coupon with my air ticket, which I could avail at any five star hotels in any city across the world.

The next day my uncle had to attend an urgent official meeting and thus I got a beautiful chance to explore the city on my own. Before stepping out from the house I searched on internet about the city and fortunately was able to collect a lot of information through the travel websites that also offered cheap airline tickets to Tokyo. Selling under the names of cheap business class tickets, cheap flight tickets, cheap air tickets, and cheap flights to Tokyo the travel companies sites also gave valuable information about the city.

The Impulse Palace, Meiji Jingu Shrine, the Ueno Park in the spring all formed the major attractions of the city. Tourists from the world visit Tokyo to see the extraordinary subway system and the excellent transport system that the city possesses. After spending my memorable weekend with my uncle in the Sci-fi city I retuned back to my hometown. I called up my travel company Fare Buzz, the leading American travel Company and thanked for arranging a nice and memorable trip to Tokyo.

Sao Paulo - The most shimmering city of South America


The world’s third largest city with largest agglomeration in South America, Sao Paulo has always been my dream city. This time I planned to spend my vacation in my dreamland Sao Paulo. After booking my cheap business class flight with Copa Airlines, I immediately packed all my stuffs and got ready to explore the most aviated city of my life. Sao Paulo has always been in comparison with cities like New York and Los Angeles.

While sitting in my business class seat a lot many thoughts about the city pre-occupied my mind. I heard from many friends who have been to Sao Paulo that the city’s attraction lies in its people and the pulsating culture. While onboard I really enjoyed the Brazilian special cuisines that were served on the air flight.  Being a cosmopolitan, Sao Paulo possessed significant ethnic minority communities from across the world.

My flight landed late in the evening and I had to rush to the hotel where I had my reservations. The next day I planned to explore the city. I was carrying the travel book which I received as a gift with my business ticket. I read an advertisement of a travel company that along with business class air travel could also arrange affordable cheap flight to Sao Paulo. The book also contained several airlines ads such as Taka Airlines, Lam Airlines and Tam Airlines as these airlines offered direct flights to the city.

The moment I stepped in the city I was overwhelmed to see the crowded streets with tourists, visitors and the locals. All were strolling into the fast paced streets of Sao Paulo. Being of a friendly nature I keep making friends wherever I go. I met a local citizen while shopping who made his living with his own travel business. While familiarizing me with the city he also told that there were many airlines that offered business class discounts on several air tickets to Sao Paulo.

Spending a complete day at the local attractions I returned back to my hotel to have a restful night. The next sunny morning I went to see the beaches of the beautiful city. On the way I met a guide who turned out to be a nice companion. He was told that when he came to the city it was like a Jungle but within a span of few years the city showed an enormous growth. The travel industry especially airlines by offering discounted business class travel and business class flights have played a major role in the development of the city.

The fabulous museums are the finest among all the South American cities. The graceful coastline offers lovely beaches to all the visitors from across the world who traveled through either business class tickets or cheap air tickets to the city. The nightlife of the city offers world class entertainment to all the party lovers. Live performances that include the traditional instruments like drums and the berimbau (a stringed rod used to keep time) are simply matchless to the performances with electric instruments.

After spending the most memorable time in the city I could now say that Sao Paulo is the destination that should be visited at least once in a lifetime. Later I packed my stuffs in the hotel and also confirmed my returning cheap business class ticket with my travel company Fare Buzz. Though there are many travel companies that offer travel packages but Fare Buzz is one such travel company that along with business class tickets and cheap airline tickets also arranges last minute flights to several destinations.
