Question by Melissa B: What are some sites where I can find good deals on airline tickets to France in December?
I looked at Expedia, Travelocity, HotWire and Priceline but ticket prices are $ 1600+. I always thought traveling to Europe in the winter was cheaper?

I was looking to go to Nice in early December, one way, because I don’t know when I’d be coming back. And I was either looking at flying to Nice or flying to Paris and taking the Euro-rail because I thought it might be a cheaper option, seeing as how there are probably more flights to Paris daily then to Nice. But apparently the price doesn’t change. I searched for a flight for a Tuesday because I think in the middle of the week tickets are cheaper?

Does anyone know of any sites that offer cheap ticket prices and any other tips to lower the fare?

For one-way international flights, consolidators are usually cheapest. You can try some at http://www.bookingbuddy.com — such as Cheaptickets, CheapO, via Mobissimo, etc. Other good ones not on Bookingbuddy: Flights.com, Airdeals.com, Economytravel.com, Justfares.com, Travelteam.com. (I’m assuming you need departure from somewhere US or Canada?).

Be aware that you can not legally enter on a one-way ticket without European passport, or proof of onward travel outside of Schengen within 90 days. If questioned for it at check in and/or arrival, you need to have it in-hand. A Ryanair or Easyjet flight to the UK or Switzerland, for example, or a seat reservation for your Eurail pass out of Schengen-land before 90 days, should suffice (since CH or UK are part of Schengen border agreement).

Do you have a small private airport near your home. Go down and make friends in the coffee shop or with an employee of the airport. See if they can set you up with a dead head one way (or both ways) for free. then you would only have to pay half price or one way of your trip or mayber not have to pay at all. Many times people are practicing for their license or just out joy riding and Phx to San Diego is a much used corridor. They like company when they are flying and many times will take a passenger for no money at all. think outside the box a little. its fun too and you meet a good class of cool people.
good luck!

I want to go home to Ohio from Melbourne, Australia for three weeks either in late-ish December for Christmas or in January. The prices are pretty high right now- 2000 is the absolute lowest I’ve seen. My question is- is this the ideal time to buy these tickets, or will the prices possibly go down ? Or up ? How long before I go should I book my flight ?

Question by Vasily: Do you guys know any websites where you can get the cheapest deals for airline tickets from Toronto to Prague?
I am planning to go there in December, round trip.
Flight network says the ticket would cost minimum of $ 700. Are there any better deals I can find?

Best answer:

Answer by jasmine
Prices depend on your travel dates. US$ 700, all included, is probably a good deal in December.

Try Travelocity: it usually offers the cheapest tickets.

Try also Opodo (prices in British pounds) for flexible dates since flexible dates do not work at Travelocity for international flights.

Finding online the cheapest flight for you is the job of flights brokers/ booking sites. The best ones are listed here: http://www.willgoto.com/1/023798/liens.aspx

Question by Nandan: when should I buy air tickets to Spain for travel in December?
When do airlines give their deals for December travel? Whats a good cheap flight from LAX to Barcelona or Madrid (or even Lisbon) in DECEMBER going to cost me? It costs > $ 1000 in summer, but whats the off-season average price?

Best answer:

Answer by Princess
There are very few deals in December as it is a peak travel season. The airlines will fill their flights anyway, they don’t need to offer really cheap tickets. My recommendation is to book early. That way you know you have your seat and if the flight starts to fill up and therefore the price increases at least you have already secured your ticket.

Question by yo mama: What site is the cheapest to buy Hotel tickets?
I need reservations by December 13th. I would like to buy it on line or even just reserve the room… what web site has the cheapest deals for a hotel room? Thanks!

Best answer:

Answer by juncogirl3
I find that calling a travel agency usually knows all the best deals around rather than any of the services on the net. Too many hidden charges in things like travelocity and Cheap tickets. A good travel agency is usually up on good package deals.
