So you have an unplanned journey and you want to locate
cheap one way last minute flights so that you can make a
reasonable saving on your air travel. It all sounds so
simple doesn't it? But the reality is that many people
lose out on the deal because they do no know where to
find last minute flight tickets at a cheaper price. I
know many passengers will just arrive at the airport and
buy the ticket directly from the airlines office. That's
fine if money is no object but many of us like to get a
good deal on our flight tickets so we have to shop a
little smarter than the average guy.
One source for finding cheap one way last minute
flights is to locate the bucket shops in your area. You
may not find them on the high street anymore. Most of
them have now relocated to small offices in back street
building and do most of the business on the Internet and
telephone. The days of walk in passengers looking to buy
a flight ticket will soon be a thing of the past. These
bucket shops are ideal for locating cheap flight deals
because they work on a low commission high turnover work
pattern which is great for you and me.
You will find that many bucket shops may be
specialists in specific geographic areas. I found that
out for my self when I was looking for a flight to the
Philippines. I tried lots of high street travel agents
who were quoting me ridiculous prices so I decided to
locate the bucket shops in China Town. They had great
deals on all Asia locations. They was located behind a
restaurant with no shop front and the only way I
actually found them was looking in the Yellow Pages.
These bucket shops are great for cheap one way last
minute flights so my advice is to take a look in the
telephone directories and Yellow Pages for these money
saving sources. Forget about the normal travel agents
where you can book anything from package holidays to car
hire. If you just contact specialist flight agents then
you stand a much better chance of getting that last
minute cheap flight.
