Enjoying The Cheapest Airline Flights Travel Deals

By Nicoloss Swarwizz


Using the cheapest airline flights travel deals allows you to fly far further than you could ever have before. The emergence of budget carriers enables even families on lower incomes get away to sun shores or ski slopes. Yet it's not only about budget airlines, but about being clever to find the best flight deals available.

The world wide web lets you scan cheap air fares that can save a small fortune on particular routes. By using flight comparison websites, you're able to compare prices quickly from both premium, established airlines plus bucket shop prices and travel agents' special offers. These may given the best value at the lowest prices: selling off last-minute cancellations on both holidays and flights.

You can find the cheapest flights by comparing all scheduled and chartered operators. Many websites will now do just this on your behalf. They can save you money, time and the hassle of searching on different airlines' sites. You are unlikely to know every single carrier operating your desired route. But the scanning and comparison sites do, you you can see the fares from the different companies who travel to your paradise under the sun.

Be aware: some flight comparison websites don't list the budget airlines, because those don't tend to sponsor results unlike others. So you may still need to contact the low-cost carriers for the country in question: whether your departure country or the destination. Most now have at least one such budget airline. Some countries, like the UK, have at least three. You don't get the extras such as free food, drinks and baggage allowances, but you do get very low priced A to B flights.

Sir Freddie Laker pioneered the low-cost, no frills airline model as early as 1966. A British entrepreneur, he led the way for others who have become much more successful: because Laker himself went bankrupt in the early Eighties. Laker Airways was the first operator to put trans-Atlantic flights within the reach of the masses.

Many business people have taken this model to a new level. Stelios Haji-Ioannou took his famous orange brand to the UK and then developed hotels, cruises and car hire on a similar business model. Operating out of Dallas, Southwest were even quicker to walk in Laker's shoes, operating since 1967. Tony Ryan also followed suit in Ireland. Tony Fernandes introduced the model to Asia. These entrepreneurs have let the everyday-Joe fly all around the world.

Yet budget carriers aren't always the cheapest each day. That's why it is vital to use websites which scans all the airlines and take in their latest special deals. Even the high-end operators have last-minute spaces and cancellations, as well as seasonal sales. You can bag yourself a flight bargain by searching around.
