How to Buy a Plane Ticket in Another Country

Purchasing a plane ticket in a foreign country is slightly different then purchasing one within the United States. For one, you most likely will not be able to buy a ticket using one of the popular online brokers (such as Travelocity or Expedia). It is normally the easiest to purchase the ticket straight through a travel agent or at the airline's counter at the airport.

Instructions

    • 1

      Go to either a nearby travel agent or to an airline's ticket counter.

    • 2

      Select the flight you want to buy tickets for.

    • 3

      Present the agent with your passport. The agent will then scan it to make sure your identity is correct and that you are in the country legally. You may also need another form of state-issued identification, such as a driver's license.

    • 4

      Purchase the ticket. This can be done with either cash or, more often, a credit card.

Tips & Warnings

  • Note that there are a few countries that will not accept American-based credit cards, so it is always a good idea to check on this before leaving for the country in question.
