Don Nadeau asked:
Here’s a tip that the airlines don’t tell you: You can often get great savings on airfares–especially international airfares–when you use more than one airline ticket for the same trip.
But there is technique to it. Some challenges can arise when you use two tickets–but don’t worry, I’m going to tell you how to avoid them right here.
Coming up with possible combinations
When you use two tickets for your trip, you are using two airfares, which normally couldn’t be combined on the same ticket. Typically, this means booking different airlines.
So, how do you find two airfares that are cheaper than one?
One way is to think of popular cities between your origin and destination that you would love to visit. Popular cities usually have more competitive airfares.
For example, you may not find a reasonably priced ticket from your city to Malaga, Spain, but you may find a great deal to Dublin, another fabulous city to visit. And, because Malaga is popular with travelers from Ireland and the United Kingdom, it should be easy to find a cheap ticket from Dublin to Malaga.
You’ve saved a bundle, and enjoyed two destinations for less than the price of one.
Another way to save with two tickets is to use a budget airline for part of your trip.
For example, you probably won’t find good airfares from Raleigh to Mazatlan, but you’ll almost certainly come across low fares from Raleigh to Las Vegas and other major cities in the West because low-priced Southwest Airlines flies these routes.
And, because Mazatlan is a popular destination for travelers in the western U.S., you can expect to pick up a great fare from major cities to Mazatlan. In most cases, these two tickets will cost significantly less than buying one ticket from Raleigh to Mazatlan.
To see where several budget airlines fly, check out the route maps of Southwest, JetBlue, WestJet (Canada), and Ryanair (Europe, Ireland, and the United Kingdom) at their websites.
Consider secondary airports and changing airports
When setting up your two tickets, think of secondary airports and changing airports while traveling, if you really want to save.
If you’re traveling to Europe, Frankfurt, Paris, Rome, and London all offer less well-known airports with incredibly cheap fares to other points in Europe. (Ryanair’s site lists its European airports, which are also used by other budget airlines.)
For example, you may fly into London’s Heathrow Airport from the U.S. on a bargain ticket, but you can fly on to other points in Europe more cheaply if you fly out of London’s Lutton, Stansted, or Gatwick airports.
Many cities in the U.S. also have more than one airport, and usually the lesser known is predominantly used by budget airlines, such as the Midway Airport in Chicago.
Five ways to avoid inconvenience when you combine tickets
Using two tickets does increase your chances for inconvenience, so follow these procedures when you’re setting up your itinerary:
* Plan to schedule at least one day between your two tickets. Suppose you arrive late on your first ticket and miss the departure flight on your second ticket? The airline on your second ticket may not have another departure to your destination that same day, or it may charge you high fees to rebook. You can avoid this potential problem by scheduling your departure for the next day from the outset - and possibly enjoy the sites, a great restaurant, or friends in that city while you’re at it.
* If you must check luggage, plan to schedule at least several days between your two tickets. I always recommend that you pack everything you need in your carry-ons, but I realize this is not always possible. So, if you must check luggage, plan to schedule at least several days between your two tickets.
Since you cannot check your luggage from one airline to another when using two tickets, if your luggage is late, the airline on the second ticket may not be obligated to send your luggage on. So, if you are still in that city when it arrives, you will be able to pick it up yourself. (You can see how picking a city you’d love to visit fits in quite well with this strategy.)
And speaking of luggage, be sure to check the limits on luggage size and weight with all airlines. The rules occasionally change within the U.S., and note that airlines outside the United States have far more restrictive limits on luggage size and weight for both carry-on and check-on luggage, when your ticket does not start or end in the U.S. The penalties for noncompliance can be steep.
* Consider asking a travel agent to set up your itinerary. What if you pay for one ticket and then find that the other ticket is suddenly unavailable for the price you expected? No airline price (even one displayed clearly online) is guaranteed until it’s paid for.
Because of this, you may wish to use a travel agent for two tickets. In most cases, he or she can void the first ticket if you are unable to get the second ticket.
On the other hand, if you’re flexible about your dates and airports, you may wish to go for discounts on Priceline and other online sites for maximum savings.
* If you’ll be switching airports, find out how much time you’ll need. Research the amount of time you need to switch airports and factor that into your flight departure time. For example, if you arrive in Paris Charles de Gaulle and depart from Paris Beauvais, transferring from one to the other can take hours, unless you choose to go by taxi–quicker, but expensive.
* Although a few budget airlines, such as Southwest and JetBlue, are very financially strong, be sure to check out ones you’re not familiar with. If an airline’s stock price has lost most of its value, the airline may offer more than the usual number of flight cancellations and changes.
Knowledge equals…
Using more than one ticket has helped me afford to travel the world. But be sure to follow these tips to avoid inconvenience. You’ve heard of knowledge = power. Well, here let’s say knowledge = great savings plus smooth traveling.

Finding Cheap Discount International Flights and Airline Tickets is All About Timing
Filed Under Bid | Leave a Comment
Andrew Bicknell asked:
Many people dream of traveling to a foreign country but the cost of international airfare is enough to scare most people off. If this is something you’ve always dreamed of doing but the prohibitive cost of airline tickets has kept you from doing so then its time to learn the secrets of finding cheap discount international flights and airline tickets.
The one thing that most people are not aware of is the fact that airline ticket prices change on a daily basis. This is important to remember because when you find a really good deal you need to take advantage of it. If you wait until the next day to think about it there is a good chance that the price will have changed.
You can take advantage of this daily price change is you know what to do. Or more importantly who to talk to. Call the airlines ticketing representatives directly and simply ask what kind of ticket discounts they currently have running for their international flights. Most airlines run specials every day of the week, they just don’t advertise the fact.
The time you choose to call can also be important because most of these discounted specials are first come first serve. The airlines update their computerized ticketing system everyday at right around midnight so calling in the early morning hours stands a good chance of finding some really good deals on international airline tickets.
There is also the issue of knowing how far in advance to buy your tickets because you want to take advantage of any early booking discounts the airlines may be offering. The general for early booking is to make your reservations between 4 months and 21 to 14 days before your scheduled travel dates. You won’t save much if you try to book a flight beyond 4 months out and once you get inside of the two week travel window the airlines know they can charge full price because most people traveling are either business travelers or traveling on short notice.
Another good tip to finding inexpensive airline tickets is to travel during the off-peak seasons. Because the demand for tickets isn’t as great during these times the airlines will offer pretty good discounts to put warm bodies in their cabins.
Finding cheap discount international flights and airline tickets is relatively easy if your timing is good. Once you learn the ins and outs of the airline ticketing system you will soon find yourself traveling with more spare cash in your pockets no matter where you go.

Discount Airline Ticket and Airfare Specials - Too Good to Be True?
Filed Under Travel | Leave a Comment
Del Boy asked:
Is there such a thing as a discount airline ticket? Cheap business class tickets or other air fare specials, everyone wants to book flights cheap, but make sure you do not rush into the first great deal?
Finding airline ticket offers for a bargain can seem a mighty challenge and sometimes impossible. However for the discerning ticket hunter there are indeed some innovative ways that clever shoppers can find really fantastic deals on a cheap online flight booking and if you use the same formulae for other ticket needs such as west end shows, broadway shows and sports tickets.
Getting back to cheap airline tickets, a great place to hunt is online, airline ticket agencies are in abundance. However do not think your travel agent does not have some great deals as well plus you will get the human touch and maybe even a cup of coffee. Depending on your time shopping on the internet should generally yield better results in a much shorter time. Air fare specials are in abundance if you know where to look.
There are numerous travel clubs and discount travel organizations who will try and find you the best prices on airline ticket specials, while providing the customer, the king (that’s you, by the way) the convenience of a one stop shopping portal. Some also offer very generous rebooking possibilities and discounted travel insurance. Hopefully you will find yourself a great deal, I have known people who have ended up with a business class ticket less than 100 dollars. Also consider an airline ticket auction, but do not get carried away!
Before you start make sure you plan your plan and then work your plan. Thoses who fail to plan, plan to fail! I would suggest you go to the airlines first. This is one of the keys to success. Some of the airlines lets you receive late flight deals online or by email and most airlines offer weekly specials that could give you travel specials, dramatically reduced discounted tickets even for a business class ticket.
Other benefits of going directly to the airline website are that they will of course mort certainly allow you to count your flight for airline miles for their airline ticket specials. Always keep your eyes open for third party sites that offer really good deals and can add to the savings you have already found.All the add on such as worldwide travel insurance, travel and hotel for example could be to be much cheaper by them.
Here are some key concept strategies that you can use to ensure the best deals on air fare specials. Firstly and most importantly is that you do your research well in advance. Many people think wait until the last monet to book a discount airline ticket well booking as early as possible is vital to get the best price.
Also if you wait until the last moment it is very possible the flight is sold out . It just requires good timing and some patience. Make sure you remain patient while finding the best deal.
Another thing to remember is very often it is all about timing. To find great deals on flights is to know when to shop for airline ticket specials. Different companies vary in their sales and marketing techniques. For instance some airline companies have their sale beginning on Sunday night. Therefore Monday morning as early as possible is a great time to find airline ticket offers at the very best price. Plane ticket prices can vary considerably based on your flexibility of when you can leave.
Summing up all this information remember to stay organized and patient. There are many emotions and considerations you need to make. Either way whatever you are planning whether it is a worldwide trip or just a local couple of days holiday make sure you enjoy yourselves.
You can also use these techniques to book cheap theatre tickets in London, a discount broadway ticket or concert tickets online. Now you know the pitfalls and pluses, the sky really is the limit!

As many of these vacation destinations are for the most part in far away countries you will have to see about booking airline tickets for these places. The problem is that different domestic airlines these external airline tickets will be more expensive. The solution that you can look into is that of cheap international airline tickets.
These types of tickets will have more scope for low priced tickets as there are could be many another(a) airlines for one country. You can find these unlike varieties of cheap international airline tickets from your travel agent. When you are questioning about these tickets you should also try and find out the cost of hotels in your particular destination.
Sometimes these cheap international airline tickets are linked to holiday package deals. These deals can be all inclusive or you will have to pay for the cost of the airway ticket separately and your hotel package separately. These are some of the incentives that major international airlines can offer.
You should find out what documentation and visa forms you will need in order to enter the country of your vacation choice. As cheap international airline tickets may not offer you a refund if you are not able to enter the country at your specified date for lack of the right documents, you will have to check this information before you start reserving your cheap international airline tickets.
As some outside(a) airlines offer special times for their cheap international airline tickets you might want to take advantage of these offers to go on a much coveted holiday. Since these airway tickets are inexpensive in cost you will have some extra money left Apart so that you can use this money for other purposes.
When you are look for unlike types of cheap international airline tickets you should see the different times in the year that these tickets are available. This can be helpful if you need to travel in the peak season as tickets at this time are very expensive. Look for cheap international tickets during the main vacation season will allow you to have the vacation that you have been planning for.
As the unlike external airlines travel to dissimilar places in the world you can always be assured of finding an airline where you will be able to bargain cheap international airline tickets.

Free Airline Tickets
Filed Under Lowest Airfare | Leave a Comment
Peter Gitundu asked:
Some people are fortunate enough to get free airline tickets to use for travel. It’s not easy to get these free tickets. They are mostly given out during promotions. For example an airline has revamped its fleet and wants to attract fliers, they will give out tickets. These tickets may be valid only between certain destinations, so they may be restricting in that sense.
Sometimes a ticket can be given as a way of apologizing for a cancellation on a previous flight. Sometimes the travel agent may be acting as an airline agent and might be given some tickets give out as a means of advertising and attracting potential customers. For example if an airline is introducing a new route, or a new fleet of aircraft.
Sometimes someone could get free airline tickets by winning a raffle or something of the sort. The problem with these free tickets is that they have many drawbacks and limitations when it comes to utilizing them. For example, they might only be valid for a certain number of months, they could be non transferable or might be one way and you have to organize your way back. They could also be to a destination that you have no interest in.
Anything that’s free is always very attractive, and unless you are flexible and don’t mind the restrictions that come with the tickets, you are good to go. And again, as with anything that is this attractive, make sure you always read the fine print. Ask any questions you might have for the person who is giving you this free airline tickets.
