What the best way to buy lowest price domestic air tickets.?

Answer 1

Farechase.yahoo.com is a new site which searches multiple airline and travel websites in one step. You'll be able to find some great deals with it.

Answer 2

This is my answer to a similar question. The best thing to do is to just take some extra time to research and look around for the best price.



These sites are all pretty safe to go through. Just be sure you understand policies, etc. in case you need to cancel or change your flight. Look over what you book several times to make sure it is what you want/need. As far as the one site that is the best, it's really hard to tell you. They will all vary and change all the time. One site may be lower for one person, higher for the next. You just have to do your research and see what yo find. In my expereince, the cheapest way to go is directly through the airline. In my past dozen trips, that I can remember, the airline has always been cheaper than the online discounters. Just look around and see what you can find.



Check around online. There are several online discounters, like expedia, priceline, orbitz, etc. This is usually the cheapest way to go. But you should also check directly through airline sites to see if they are running a special. For example, air tran often offers discounted tickets on Tuesdays and Thursdays and it is cheaper than through other online sites. Also watch in the newspapers and such, they often advertise specials in the newspaper.



Hope this helps

Answer 3

Buy early (by several months). The first few seats on a plane are the cheapest. I've already bought my summer vacation plane tickets.

If you can't do that, try Priceline. Name a very low price. It could work.
