At first, especially on the Internet, some may seem expensive airfares. Do not get discouraged. Normally, no discounts direct purchases and certain facilities. And although most advisable to buy a ticket is a travel agency to enter, from time to time, the pages of airlines can be useful because sometimes there are special offers (some of them only if you buy online) or payment facilities, especially in winter. Some of them consist of a round trip ticket at low cost if the return ticket is done by a certain date (sometimes a month and a half, sometimes three weeks, etc.).
However, it is best, always, go to a travel agency. In them, you usually attend a lady or young lady. From the beginning try to be cordial with her.
This may sound obvious, but it is important to keep in mind because, at one point, she will be one of your strongest supporters for your trip.How much money you have not explained how bluntly approximate budget accounts, which places you visit and about how long you’ll be. No matter how you want to travel December and in July the following year. In addition tickets are cheaper as more are purchased in advance, the travel agent will take into account if there are offers, for packets that are “good, nice and cheap”, etc..
Remember to talk from time to time and go not one, but two or three travel agents at least. But I always friendly and tries to tell her your mind to travel. Try to spread your enthusiasm. That always helps, basically for two reasons:
a) She will find the best options (and cheaper) for you. To a large extent, our dream of traveling depends on how it works.
b) Normally, with their contacts, they can advise and guide you on things beyond strictly to get tickets: you can tell other travelers experiences regarding food, clothing and country situations, say associations (teachers, students , professionals, etc.). that might be useful to get travel insurance, discounts, etc..
Now if you want to find even more facilities level, another thing you can do is look for a relative or family member, whose job requires travel by air continuously. I know that may sound crazy, but sometimes they work travelers who manage to accumulate so many miles to get substantial discounts or free tickets.
You can negotiate with them and so get a cheap ticket. After all, a free airline ticket, even international, loses its charm if you will not be used. For these people, sometimes it is better money. A trip I took to the U.S., for example, I did buy my ticket this way.
Looking at the agencies and the Internet, was that I found with surprise that air travel to Europe was much more expensive than going to Cancun and Huatulco. In fact, it is more expensive to travel from Mexico City to Cancun from Mexico City to Miami itself.
Proportionately, it is more expensive to go to San Luis Potosi to Mexico City to Paris. And if you travel from the U.S. is even cheaper. That’s something the first thing one learns when one begins to dream of a trip: Mexico is a country with very expensive services.
Finally, try to get a plane ticket that includes the possibility of changing the flight date back to a cheaper rate. This is very important, because who knows? You may want to stay longer because your budget still provides for a little longer.
