How to Get Airline Deals for a Family of Four
- 1). Search for flights using an Internet-based travel website such as Expedia, Kayak, Orbitz or Hotwire. Make a note of the price per person. This will give you an idea of basic fares.
- 2). Search for flight deals on airline websites and elsewhere on the Internet. Smartertravel.com has rated five airlines as the most affordable and family friendly: Southwest Airlines, Midwest Airlines, Jet Blue, Alaska Airlines and Frontier Airlines. All five of these airlines allow infants younger than 24 months to fly free in a parent's lap. Southwest, Midwest, and Alaska also offer youth discounts.
- 3). Compare pricing from the travel websites with that from the discount carriers and with other special deals you find online and choose the best deal.
