Cheap Airlines are still around all though most of the airlines are
offering less amenities and still trying to charge more. The good
cheap airlines can be found anywhere in the world now and you can find
them for both domestic and international airline travel. Some of
the many good Cheap Airlines that come to mind immediately are Southwest
Airlines, JetBlue, Ryan Air, EasyJet, Virgin Blue to name just a few.
Cheap Airlines does not mean that the engines are falling off or that
you have to fill the plane up with gas. It just means that these
types of airlines are not going to be big on offering frills and extras.
They want to keep your prices down and at the same time earn a
reasonable profit on their investment. Cheap Airlines will usually
offer short haul routes where they can get in quickly and get out
quicker so that they can keep earning money on their airplanes and the
investments in hardware.
Some of the Cheap Airlines will be cheaper than others. Southwest
Airlines does not charge for extra bags or for that fact, for any bags
checked when traveling up to certain weight restrictions. Others
are charging for the first or second bags checked and these are some of
the new fancy ways for them to make more revenue while keeping their
basic fare price down. The bag charges can really hurt the
families and groups that are going somewhere for extended time.
When traveling on any of the Cheap Airlines, please do not expect to get
free movies, free alcohol or full service lunches. What you should
expect is to pay for any set of head-phones to listen to the music or
movies, pay $3 or $4 bucks for a drink and if you think you will be
hungry on the flight, bring a meal. Most airports have food
service facilities where you can buy both light and heavy meals to take
with you on board.
Some of the major legacy carriers will charge for drinks, head phones
and meals if you are flying in the coach or economy class section of
their plane. If you are flying in their first class or business
class category, you should expect that all these types of amenities will
be provided to you without any additional fees or costs.
Remember, even the Cheap Airlines charge for airline tickets so if you
are going somewhere, try to book your trip as soon as possible before
the prices get higher. Think about waiting till the mid part of
the week to research the prices and to book since it is sometimes
cheaper to book airline tickets during the mid week period. If you
ever find a price that you are happy with, book it and never look back.
The worst thing to do is find a good price and think you will find a
better one and then when you check back it has gone up a couple hundred
dollars or more.
