My fiance is in the Marines?

Question

He gets 4 days leave from SOI for 4th of July celebrations. I want to fly him home, however the prices of flight are so expensive it's almost impossible! Especially with how many times we have had to fly him around lately alone! (I think the military should have been paying for those flights. grr.)

Does anybody know of any way I can get a cheaper flight for militants, possibly?? Any ideas??

Answer 1

He should be able to catch a MAC flight for free, although a small charge (around $15) may be requested.  Be aware that space on these will be fickle and people on leave are the lowest priorty when it comes to who and what gets on board.  So even if he can get one too you, he may not get one back in time.  Also, are you sure it actually Leave he is on and not Liberty?  If its only Liberty, then he may not be permitted to leave the immediate area.

Answer 2

There should be on the site that you are booking on a Military discount of some kind. If there is not try a different site such as Travelocity or Hotwire. Another thing is that yeah the military should be paying for those flights.
