Step 1: Check the Internet. When considering traveling you should look for air travel deals on the internet. And check out travel websites such as http://www.orbitz.com/ and http://www.cheaptickets.com/. They will compare air travel providers and list discount air travel deals first. Just enter the city you are leaving from and going to (or the airport) as well as your preferred departure and return dates, and the website will do the rest of the work for you. Often times, you will get a better deal by using websites that compare prices like these than you would by ordering your tickets directly from an airline carrier's site. Step 2: Look for specials. Other travel websites you may want to visit include those like http://www.expedia.com/ and http://www.travelocity.com/ to get cheaper air travel specials. They have sections where you may be able to snag a cheap flight for a lot less than you might otherwise have paid - most travel websites like these have a Red Tag Deals' section or a Last Minute Deals' area. Make sure to browse the internet for the greatest discount air travel deals before booking. Step 3: Chat with a travel agent. Travel agents know it all when it comes to booking air travel, so it makes sense to talk to a professional about finding discount air travel deals. Supply your destination and have the agent look for the lowest fares. If you have no preference over what time, date or class you sit in, the travel agent will likely be able to present you with a few different flight options that are much lower than you would have found on the airline's websites. (When you ask your travel agent to search for discounts on air travel, remember that travel agents make commission, meaning that you will have to pay your travel agent for the time they spend to search for these discounts.) Step 4: Use your flying points. Open up your wallet and you may find a few airline deals just waiting! Remember those valuable airline points that have been sitting in your account for years? Think about redeeming them for a lower price fare (not a free fare). As long as using your points doesnt restrict when you can travel, you should be able to get a cheaper fare by using your points towards the purchase. Step 5: Sign up for AAA membership. Not only does AAA provide service to stranded motorists, but it helps eager travelers find great vacations deals. AAA has a travel department available to customers with travel agents who will find and book discount air travel deals for customers. Similar to a travel agent, an AAA agent can get some of the deals and discounts you wont find online. You can easily get back the joining cost of your annual AAA fee when you book a flight through them and benefit from the discount deals.
