Would you pay 399 dollars if you could travel at wholesale prices and obtain travel agents discounts/upgrades?

James M asked:


The travel membership is a one time fee. The company offers travel packages throughout the year. For example, a trip to Playa Del Carmen for 5 days and 4 nights for 599 per person. This includes room, food, and airfare from DFW.

Help with finding best Airfare?

mrhockeymike38 asked:


I would like to go to Germany from Pittsburgh sometime next late June. I absolutely need the lowest prices (INCLUDING fees and taxes) if someone can give me any advice whatsoever, or any websites that are very cheap, that would be excellent. I’m trying to keep the cost anywhere under $900 to $1100 total. If it helps, my dad is on the Naval reserve (just in case of military discount)

Cheapest Airfare from Phoenix, AZ to Ft. Walton Beach, FL?

quickchekgirl16 asked:


My dates are flexible - I’m looking to fly sometime between now and May–staying for two to five days–and would like to spend “ideally” between $200-$250 TOTAL.

If anyone knows a place I can sign up and get discounts, i.e. groups/conventions/clubs that are offering discounts, please let me know! My boyfriend–whom I’m visiting–is in the Air Force, so I’m not certain if that makes a difference or not. …Maybe coupon codes…?

I’m willing to pay for this information. As of right now, I’m looking at $330-$380 round trip TOTAL price, and this is certainly too high.

By the way, I’ve checked virtually ALL the travel sites, including but not limited to; Orbitz, Travelocity, Kayak, Cheap O Air, Priceline, Cheap Tickets, etc.–as well as virtually ALL of the airlines. So, please do not bother to list these as the options.

Thank you!

What percent of the normal airfare is it for friends and family to fly on American Airlines?

Richard S asked:


I want to fly to Recife, Brazil from Hawaii. A contact of mine who works for American Airlines says he can get me a friends and family ticket, sometimes called a buddy ticket, to fly on American for a big discount. He says the round trip ticket will cost me about $600. Someone else told me they thought that was too much as those type of tickets are usually 10 percent of the normal fare. So, does American Airlines have these types of tickets, and if so, what is the percentage of the normal fare that they are? Someone else said those tickets only cost what the taxes are. That being the case, what would my ticket to Brazil from Hawaii cost on that basis? Thanks.

How much in advance should you book your flight to get the cheapest air fare?

capricorn asked:


I am traveling to NJ from GA for a family reunion. I need to be in NJ no later than Thursday, July 31. I was going to book my flight today (July 16) because I was told that most airlines require a two week advance booking for the best fares, also I have found that if you travel on Wedsnesdays the fares are cheaper. However, someone told me that most airlines have sales on Thursdays. However, that would only give me a 13 day advance booking. I have also been told that some airlines now only require a 7 to 10 day advance booking for the best fares. I’m getting a little confused with so much information. Also, could you supply some good web sites to find discount airfares. So far, cheapo-air seems to be the best one. Thanks.

Discount flight tickets for child visitation?

CrazyTrain asked:


Question for anyone who can help…..

My boyfriends ex wife moved out of state with their children. He went to court to fight it because she had no reason to leave besides to leave…and she won and was able to move. Laws in this state didnt help the father out. The father is now required to pay for airfare (his and children) every other month (even though she is one that wanted to move). The children are at an age where they shouldnt fly alone, so he needs to fly and pick them up, fly back, and then 3 days later fly there to drop off and come back again.
The tickets are outrageous, because he is gonna have to fly and come back in the same day. Does anyone know if there are any flight discounts or anything for people who have child visitation?
This may be a dumb question, but any help would be greatly appreciated.
It’s going to end up being 1500 or more for these flights every other month and didnt know if there was anything for this sort of thing

Thanks so much!

Why is there so much price difference between Travelocity, Orbitz, and Expedia?

Evan asked:


So I was looking at airfare on all three of these sites, but I was shocked at the difference in prices. On the same dates, the prices for a flight was about $650 on Expedia, but only $481 on Orbitz. Why are the prices so different? Do the airlines give certain sites discounts for certain flights or something?
