How To Save On Airline Tickets
If you are looking to get the best price on airline tickets, it takes more than going to an online comparison site. One area that can help bring down the price you pay is the flexibility you have when making the reservations. Here are some things to consider when trying to get the best deal on an airline ticket.
Departure times: Choosing an early morning or late at night "red eye" can decrease the cost of your ticket.
Departure Days: Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Saturdays are usually the cheapest days to fly and many comparison sites will let you factor in a few day window into the search. Just be sure to remember a better deal on the flight isn't saving you money if you have to pay for an extra night hotel room and an extra day of car rental.
Booking windows: Airlines use 21 days, 14 days and 7 days in advance booking windows with prices increasing the closure to the departure date.

It's time to bid farewell to airlines' paper tickets
If you're one of the dwindling number of travelers using a paper ticket to get on an airplane, the airline industry has a message for you: The paper ticket's almost gone.
Now airlines charge about $50 for a paper ticket, but soon paper tickets will be available only in rare circumstances.
The International Air Transport Association, which met Monday in Vancouver, British Columbia, reported that 80 percent of all airline tickets bought outside the U.S. at the end of April were e-tickets.
"If you traveled here using a paper ticket, frame it and donate it to your local museum," Giovanni Bisignani, the chief executive of the IATA, told attendees.
At American Airlines, the world's largest carrier, almost 99 percent of its tickets sold worldwide are electronic, said Tim Smith, a company spokesman.

Simplyfly
The unimaginable has come true in India. People who have never dreamt of boarding an aircraft are now flying, and flying regularly. The dates for their holidays and excursions are not decided by their itinerary but by the availability of cheap airfares. Much of this change in the Indian airline industry can be attributed to India's first low cost airlines ‘Air Deccan'. Capt. Gopinath with his airline has rewritten the foundation on which the Indian airlines operate. By connecting Tier-2 destinations with cheap fares, he has simply made the common man's dream of flying come true. But, has this put a smile on the face of an Indian? I am not really sure it has. For instance, a friend of mine once flew Air Deccan, which was, by the way, his first air experience. He was lucky to get a free ticket which Deccan has issued and while I was waiting at the airport I expected him to come out real excited.

TRAVEL UPDATE: The end of paper tickets
More than 80 percent of airlines worldwide have done away with paper tickets, and the rest will get a year to switch to cheaper electronic ticketing, according to an industry group.
The clearinghouse for the 260-member International Air Transport Association will accept paper tickets through May 31, to give airlines time to make the change, Giovanni Bisignani, chief executive of the group, said Monday at its annual meeting.
"If you traveled here using a paper ticket, frame it and donate it to your local museum," Bisignani said. "It will soon be a part of our history."
Carriers pay $10 a ticket to issue on paper, compared with $1 for electronic tickets. With two billion people traveling by air last year, savings are too great for any extensions, Bisignani said.
