How to get Good Deals on Airline Tickets?

[Dr Mario Kart]

I dont know anything about travelling, but late this year early and next year I intend to be traveling domestically quite a bit. And so I must ask for your experiences/advice regarding how/where to get the best deals on Airline Tickets.

Priceline? Going through Travel Agents? Dating a Flight Attendant?
Booking at the last moment? Booking Early? Etc.

Gracias.

Date the flight attendant, not only will you get the cheapest rate possible, you'll also with any luck be able to tap that ass. :D



In all seriousness, typically the best way to do it, I think, is online way early in advance. Travel Agents tack on their own fee, and airlines screw you if you wait.

I know I saw plans during the summer that allowed you to pay a one time fee and then fly for free within a specific time frame. Atleast I think it was free, if not it was a heavily discounted rate for each flight within that time frame. I imagine it would be a lot harder to find that same type of deal for other seasons especially with the holiday seasons coming up but I guess its worth a shot. Sorry, I can't remember the name of the company that was offering this either. I really just saw it once and since I wasn't interested I never looked deeper.

I tried this once. I was crushed by the gears inside and I died.
