  1. Booking online is cheaper.


  2. try checking eva air.. i think they're cheap.. and if you'll be traveling from lax to dca/iad/bwi or washington dc.. try jetblue, southwest or airtran.. they're cheaper from the other airlines..

    Hi Champagne...


  3. Travel agency is better, they know about the discounted price and when, usually that prices are not posted in internet. But last time we travel 6 month ago we use Cathay Pacific they have discounted ticket, you just check it every day, coz they change prices every day, and then if you see the lowest price you think book it right away. One thing good in Travel agency they can easily choose an airlines to connect flights.  

  4. I never bought ticket online. I've done some part time college job being independent travel agent to a travel agency in CA and I can tell you, travel agency's dealer price is way cheaper than the lowest online price you can find. I suggest requesting a quote from any travel agency in the country of your origin first then compare it with internet travel agencies like orbitz.com, expedia.com, travelocity.com, cheaptickets.com, etc.

    Btw, it is more expensive to fly on a weekend.

  5. book as soon as u can. ask a travel agency then compare their prices it online. i bought tickets online before and hadnt had a problem.

  6. I always buy my air ticket online and never had a problem. I am guessing the cheapest airlines to LA and onwards to DC is Northwest Airlines.

  7. cathay pacific seems to offer the best rates.  the earlier you book your flight, the better.  and booking on line is very safe tho not necessarily cheaper all the time.
