Last Minute Air Travel Deals

Businesspersons who work for large companies have the luxuries of having their travel department pay the extra cost of delayed reservations. Janet Dillsworth's father-in-law passed away last months when she wanted her two Colorado boys to come to the burial. For example, she said they should go home the next morning on United Airlines, the airline her husband uses a lot for frequent travel, and ask for a mourning rate.

Unfortunately, as Mrs. Dillsworth's son soon found out, it's not inexpensive to travel from Buffalo, New York, to Montrose, Colorado if you make your reservation a whole days in advance. Even if you don't have the time, it's not easy. However, Mr Robinson also has some good general guidance in case you need to travel at the last minute: You can use an on-line travel page to check the rates of several carriers.

When these rates are high, try different travel dates or consider going to other airfields, especially local hub cities that provide more services. Dillsworths could have been able to save more than $3,500 on a last-minute buy from the five-hour trip from Montrose to Denver basing on last week's fares..... It may even be more convenient for some travel destination to reserve the air as part of a suite, even if the airline does not need the same.

When John Madden can travel the land in a coach, you shouldn't be too foolish to take the plane. However, the remainder of us should still try to prevent last-minute travel whenever possible.
