It’s Wednesday! And there’s even a best time on Wednesday to buy that ticket. Why Wednesday? Thank the small, upstart airlines. In the airline business, fare wars are started by the weakest competitors, and the big guys tend to be the ones to raise fares. And all of that tends to happen on Fridays. So how did Wednesday become the ideal day to strike a deal?&nbsp; <p>Let’s say Airline A decides to raise fares. It usually does so at a late hour on a Friday night. By Saturday, Airline A’s major competitors will probably match that fare increase.</p> <blockquote> <strong>Warning: Book your tickets over a weekend, and you might spend a whole lot more than you should.&nbsp;<br> </strong> <strong><br> </strong> </blockquote> But what if the major com... http://abroaderview.multiply.com/journal/item/26/Blog_Volunteer_Abroad_Programs_Blog Thu, 20 Nov 2008 15:39:58 -0000 Volunteering in Morocco will provide you the chance of a lifetime to explore this mystical country while giving back to the community.
