There are oodles of sites with hefty advertisements publicizing the airlines companies and promoting them with announcing seasonal discounts and offers. But are they reliable? There are many factors to consider. Let us find out.
Masked Prices
Often the sites charge more than what they claim in their advertisements. Be careful as they can often be very misleading. Say, if you saw a discount price of an amount $99, after billing you found that you are charged with an amount of $1099. Apart from the taxes, the price includes the amount charged by the tour site. Often the airlines company includes the refreshment and other miscellaneous charges separately. In order to find the cheapest flights, make sure the tour sites are not fooling you. Read the small print and ask around to evaluate the reputation of the company.
Odd Timings
Many cheap flights offer discount prices for the odd take off and reaching hours. The prices are shown in big highlighted letters, while the timings are less or not mentioned properly. The cheap prices mesmerize the customers and they commit their money. So, even if you find the cheapest flights, they are not worth money. You need to decide whether the departure times mentioned are suited to your travel plans. For some this may be the case but for others the times are often very inconvenient (i.e. early morning or late night).
Lack of Facilities and comfort
Often when the timings are well set and no hidden costs are there, the cheapest flights fail to offer a good quality comfort level and proper refreshment to the passengers. The passengers are not attended well and there are chances for the loopholes in the facilities provided.
However, every problem has its solution. Before putting your money in these tour sites, make sure of the authenticity of the site, its advertisements and the cheapest flights you are investing. Browsing, browsing and browsing are the three golden rules to get more information about the site and find the money’s worth cheap flight. Check out the particular airline’s price individually in the other sites also, and read all the information given below the site. In this way, you can avoid the common problems people generally face while investing in some cheap flights. Always read the finer details, ask questions and be alert for any misleading information.
