Dirt Cheap Airline Tickets - Dirt Cheap Airfare

[Nettie Gary]

There's no doubt it's a tough economy these days, and anything you can
do to save a few bucks is worth it. Even in tough times, we all still
love to travel. I would say, that especially in tough times, it's good
to travel. Travel gives your mind and body a break from all the
stress. But, travel can be expensive. How do we manage to sneak some
travel time in, without breaking the bank, and making it harder to
enjoy our much needed vacation.
Finding cheap airfare, is one way that can help. I don't mind
compromising on airlines, as it's really not a big part of my
vacations. It's usually a day at the beginning, and a day at the end.
Sometimes the journey is the destination, but not always. If your
flying somewhere, chances are pretty good, that it's the destination,
that is the destination. Whenever possible, I look for the cheapest
flights I can find, and then put the savings into a nicer hotel.
So, how and where do you find cheap airfares? Well, here are a few
pointers.
Go With The Flow
The more flexible you can be with your travel dates, the more
opportunities you'll have to choose from. Not every airline flies
every hour of every day. Especially the smaller airlines, that have
fewer planes, but also much lower prices. Sometimes, just adjusting
your travel arrival and departures by a day or two can mean a cost
saving of hundreds of dollars.
Be Sure To Plan
Planning ahead can be a big time saver. Quite often airline seat
prices go up, the closer you get to the departure date. So if you can,
book your flight at least three months ahead of time. The airlines
would rather know their seats are sold months out, instead of a few
days before departure.
Now, of course there are times when the opposite is true. If you can
stand leaving things to the last minute, you can get deals again. The
airlines hate to fly with empty seats, and if you are really flexible,
and can fly on a moments notice, then this may work for you.
Keep Doing What Your Doing
If your reading this, and obviously you are, then your looking in the
right place. The internet has pretty much rendered the travel agent
redundant. Even when I traveled for work, and my company had it's own
travel agent, I never used them. Obviously, it wasn't even about the
money savings then. I'm just a bit of a control freak, and liked to
know my travel arrangements were perfectly in order. One less person
in the loop is good.
But, you can get substantial savings these days, with all the travel
websites around. They do a pretty good job, of comparing prices, and
showing you plenty of travel options. These "aggregated" travel sites
bring all the airlines, hotels, trains, cruise and car rental
companies under one roof. One stop shopping so to speak. There are
even some travel sites, that aggregate these sites.
