Step 1
When planning an international trip, you can't just book your airline and expect a cheap price within 1 month of your trip. You can't even do this 3 or 4 months prior either. You MUST plan ahead if you want to save as much money as possible, as airline tickets will skyrocket as the departure date approaches. I would recommend at least 6 months, but even up to 1 year in advance.
-
Step 2
If you have a travel agent, use their powers! They are there to help you and have easy access to practically all of the flights that are going to your destination.
-
Step 3
Sign up for discount offers (again, well in advance or your travel date) at airlines you know that travel to your international destination. Don't be afraid of spam or junk emails, because some of them might actually have the cheap deal you've been looking for. Airlines offer new deals almost every day, so sign up and watch out for those emails.
-
Step 4
Use the service at Kayak.com to find discounted flights. They are a new website that searches the databases of over 140 airline websites and you may be able to easily find your dirt cheap international airline tickets here. Resources listed below.
-
Step 5
You can also use websites like Orbitz.com (see resources below) to find cheap prices for you as well. Not only does the Orbitz website find flights, but they can also book your hotel, rental car and any activities that may be involved at your destination, cool!
