We make airline
reservations on scheduled airlines through the computer reservation system. The
lowest round-trip fares are obtained for non-refundable, non-transferable coach
class tickets purchased between 7 and 21 days in advance that include a Saturday
night stay-over. You should be aware that even if you purchase a ticket between
7 and 21 days in advance, you may not get the lowest published coach class fare
if that category of coach class ticket is already sold out. In addition, a
quoted fare cannot be guaranteed until ticketed.
We use air travel
consolidators when necessary to obtain the best air fares to international
destinations. Consolidator tickets often have restrictions including steep fees
for cancellation and sometimes frequent flyer mileage is not available when such
tickets are used.
We currently charge a fee
for airline ticket purchases. We cannot give price
quotes so only call 800-332-5228 if you are ready to make and pay for a
reservation. If you wish to check prices to your destination, we recommend you
use one of the on-line reservation systems. These ticketing services
also charge a modest fee.
Generally, the lowest
prices are found on the airline web sites. If you call the airlines directly,
they will also charge a fee. However, they do not currently charge a fee if you
book directly on their web site.
