Continued from page 1

Look into all airlines that serverepparttar destination you are interested in, including low-cost carriers that offer low fares. On a low-cost carrier, find out what you get for your money: baggage transfers from one carrier to another, meals, advance seat assignments, etc.

Use a Travel Agent

Consider using a travel agent. Agents usually do not charge a fee (they get a commission fromrepparttar 141284 airline), and they can tell you about sources of discounted seats that are not available directly fromrepparttar 141285 airline.

Check Air Fare

After you buy your ticket, you may wish to callrepparttar 141286 airline or travel agent once or twice before departure to confirm your reservations and checkrepparttar 141287 fare. Fares change allrepparttar 141288 time, and if that same fare goes down before you fly, some airlines will refundrepparttar 141289 difference. But you have to ask.

Restrictions

Ask about all restrictions on your fare. Typical requirements for discount fares include purchasing a round-trip ticket, buyingrepparttar 141290 ticket a certain number of days before departure for example, at least 14 or 21 days before you leave, purchasingrepparttar 141291 ticket within 24 hours of making a reservation, staying over a Saturday night, traveling during a certain time ofrepparttar 141292 year, staying no more than 30 days, and refund/change restrictions.

Ask about your ability to change or cancel your flight if you need to. Even if you get sick, you cannot assume you will get a refund. In fact, most discount tickets now are non-refundable.
