Would you say that it's difficult to find cheap tickets these days? I am talking about air travel here folks. I do know that people do a lot of it each and every day. If they didn't, the airlines sure would be in a load of financial trouble. Personally I'm a tad wary of flying in this new millennium for obvious reasons. I think we can all agree that it's a bit scary. 911 took a serious toll on our country and it's hard to let go of it. And maybe we shouldn't. On the other hand, we do have to count on air transit if we plan to get to certain places. I don't think we'll be traveling on ships again any time soon.
I know the best way to find cheap tickets. If you know where you're flying to and you know in advance, go ahead and hop online to discover the best deals. There are various websites that can aid you with this process now days. It's a synch to compare all current rates with the help of your computer. So if you plan to find cheap tickets for next month, go ahead and search now. Whatever you do, don't wait until the very last minute. This is the common mistake of many laymen air travelers. The pros always know to look ahead of time. I can still recall when it was a breeze to find cheap tickets. Heck, the airlines could hardly give the darn things away. It was after the 911 incident and flying was the last thing on anyone's mind. Who wanted to risk another terrorist attempt! If nothing else, this could cause the plane to go down and hit water or land. Any way you cut it, you're screwed. Fortunately America has not had another terrorist attack since then. With our beefed-up security it's truly difficult to sneak anything through. These days you can't even bring a Coke on the airplane. Although this is somewhat annoying for the majority of us, it's practically imperative for our safety.
Okay, so you want to find cheap tickets. Take full advantage of the World-Wide-Web that's always at your beck and call 24/7. That's what I personally love about the Internet. It's always there, and it never closes. Okay, as long as your cable service doesn't lose connection. Anyway, if you scan the web to find cheap tickets, you will surely come up with something worthwhile. Isn't it time you got the most for your money?

Business Class Flights
It used to be when you flew for business reasons that your company would get you business class flights for your travels. This was because business class offered a bit more room so you could work while en route without the expense of first class. Business class flights also provide a few other extras that made travel easy for those who were in the skies quite a bit for work purposes, and flying that much in coach was more of a pain than anything else.
Today, the business class flights you used to see are slowly going away. More and more airlines are cutting out a lot of their business class flights and sticking with just coach and first class flights. A big reason for this is expense. It is much cheaper to buy new planes with just two classes, and this is keeping the business class flights you used to use down in number to the point where you may not find them when you need them. A friend of mine works for an airline, and she agrees that while business class flights were helpful to the business passenger, they were indeed some of the first changes airlines started to make when money started to get tight. Airlines have to make changes to survive, and sadly, this was one that had to be made.
If you are still looking for business class flights, you can still find them if you look hard enough. They may not be as easy to find if you live in a smaller community, but they are out there somewhere. You may even have to take a coach connection to a larger city to get a business class flight to your final destination. If you can afford it, you may have to consider going first class from now on if you need the extra room to spread out and work while on a flight.
If you have no choice in the matter, you may find that your company begins to put you in coach no matter where you are going. This may become more and more common as time goes on, and this may change the way your company does business. Today there are ways around business travel, including videoconferencing and the like, but some know that this will never replace the need to have a person on the spot to get the job done.
