Instructions
Step 1
Plan your trip in advance if possible. Most airlines offer discounted tickets months in advance of the flight date. The farther the distance, the longer the period must elapse from the moment of purchasing the ticket to the day of departure. So, an inexpensive flight from Russia to the United States can be organized by booking tickets six months or a year in advance.
Step 2
Explore all the special offers on the airlines' websites. Please note that most carriers offer discounts on round-trip flights. Also, tickets on some flights will cost less if the flight is on the night from Saturday to Sunday.
Step 3
Visit the website or call the office of your local budget airline (discounter). The low cost of tickets for such carriers is due to the reduced level of comfort during the flight. Namely: lack of food, reduced baggage allowance, frequent cancellation or replacement of flights. Usually discounters do not offer long-haul flights, as a rule, these are domestic flights.
Step 4
Contact the services of charter carriers if you intend to buy a ticket a few days before departure. Charter flights are redeemed by travel companies, but if there is a shortage of passengers, the remaining seats on board are sold at a cheap price to individual tourists.
Step 5
Having booked air tickets, redeem them within the next few days or immediately after booking. Cheap tickets are not postponed for a long time without payment, as the demand for them is always great. In order not to go to the office of the company, use a plastic card or virtual money.
