Cheap Long Distance Overland Travel
This is more of a north American tip and more suited for you tight, skin flint students out there. Or people like me who have no job and all the time it takes to travel. Anyway prices for fliying around canada can be expensive but if you need to get from one point to another without breaking your journey, then greyhound have some great deals besides their bus passes. They have an advance purchase single or return deal to most major cities at $125CAD o/w or $200 rtn. You have to pay tax but even at $215 if you take the longest journey you can get from Miami to Whitehorse and back again! This works well in Canada too as you can travel between the eastern and western cities for the same price, say VanC to Halifax or VanC to Montreal. I'm planning to do the VanC - Montreal route this xmas, it takes 72hrs but I'll be saving myself at least $200.
