Dirt cheap airline tickets

There are secrets to getting cheap air ticket:

1. The internet is the best place to find cheap airline tickets and low cost airline tickets. Also can make reservations through the Call Centre, via travel agents or at most airport sales desks.Low cost carriers are ticketless airlines and in no cases issues tickets. Instead, passengers will be provided with a confirmation code when making the booking;

2. The earlier you book, the cheaper the plane ticket is likely to be (airlines generally begin selling whole range of ticket prices - and naturally the cheap ones go first);

3. Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Saturdays are typically the cheapest days to fly, don't fly during public holidays;

4. If you are planning to go to some specific destination for vacation purpose do fly in low season (Spring and Autumn). Many airlines offer cheap, discount summer or cheap spring tickets;

5. Always compare and contrast the different airline companies for the airfares they are offering for same destination;

6. If you can adjust your times to fly, you increase your chances of getting a cheap fare. Taking the "red-eye" flight can pay off because no one wants to depart at 3 a.m. and arrive at 5 a.m.;

7. Ask about senior discounts or student discounts;

8. Look into secondary airports outside the city or even in a nearby city that is less popular;

9. Try a consolidator. It`s an online travel agency specializing in discount international airline tickets, offering consolidator fares for flights.Sometimes theirs airfares are substantially less than the lowest published fare purchased directly from airlines;

10. Purchasing an air and hotel package together makes sense for the consumer looking for a cheap flight as well as for a cheap hotel;

11. Remember , often any piece of baggage to be checked-in is subject to a fee, per bag, per flight and per passenger.If further pieces of baggage are paid for at the airport, a higher baggage fee applies.Hold and hand baggage allowances cannot be combined. Passengers are allowed to carry only one piece of hand baggage not exceeding 10 kilograms;

12.You will have to pay for the flight ticket by your credit card.Most of the carriers accept only embossed credit cards;

13.Advertised price does not include charges and taxes;

14. You can find promotional fares in the newspaper or in Internet. One thing you should be doing, if you aren't already doing it, is to sign up for a "fare watcher" alert. When airfare between certain airports reach a certain price, the airlines will send you an email.

Best of luck in your searches.
