Finding a cheap airplane ticket is something of an art, one that you can learn in a very short space of time, but can spend the rest of your life trying to master. Ans: You can show your ticket confirmation email at the check-in counter of the airport or proceed for web check-in on the airline website, The airline representative would then issue the boarding pass, or you can take a printout of the boarding pass if you are doing web check-in.

Consolidators – Tickets bought directly from airlines websites could prove to be costlier, rather one should go and book tickets from consolidators or travel agents and other plane tickets comparing and selling websites who are authorized to book tickets on behalf of airlines.

The most recent flight and airfare comparison websites are now configured to include price and live availability searches on full schedule airlines, low cost budget flights and holiday charter services, all search results are returned and presented in a comprehensive and easy to read display for easy price comparison.

There are published fares (full price airline tickets) and there are net fares (discounted tickets) There are less restrictions of travel on publish fares than on net fares but most of the travelers always buy discount tickets on net fares as published fares air tickets are almost double the price.

Scott Keyes, founder and CEO of the flight deals site Scott’s Cheap Flights, said travelers should book between one to three months ahead for domestic flights at off-peak times and two to eight months for international flights to have the best chance at low prices.
