http://www.missiontrav el.org/- If you are ever going on a humanitarian or mission trip (working with some kind of a non-profit), don't book your airfare until you've checked missiontravel.org first. With contracts from airlines for (oftentimes significantly) lower fares if it qualifies as a humanitarian flight. They can also book air originating from any country, not just the USA.

there is also a wiki-article about other airlines, but those are the major players for cheap cheap travel. http://wikitravel.org/en/Discount...t_ai
just note that they often don't fly out of major airports, so getting from london heathrow to london stansted may be a great hassel unless you are very cheap and exceptionally patient.
Go to "Flight" section
Also try "SmartSearch"... you can compare prices on all major travel sites by entering trip detail once... once you enter ur dates etc.. you are good to go to compare.. I liked that place.. you can do similar search for Flights, Cars, Hotels, Cruises, Vacation Packages etc...
Flight to Las Vegas
Sydney Australia now in shoulder season $360
Sweden $600
Shanghai $260
Mumbia India $380
Delhi India $350
Moscow $410
When searching and you see a deal why not post here as many people go to HK and can do some cheap mileage runs from here.
All these were found on www.travelsexpe
Enjoy

PS on this site you get all your miles too, not like other bucket shops.

Oops cant rep ya..sorry
Sorry, you cannot give reputation to this post. The post is either too old or it is disabled for that paticular forum.
Last year I got out in Feb for $666 otd. Now, the cheapest is 877 and they want 10% of that for my infant daughter. So 87+ $400 taxes/fees/surcharges, and I'm getting robbed.
Anyone know of airlines that don't scalp you if you have an infant? on your lap.
An Idea w I had was to get a flight that connects Through germany and just take a train the rest of the way....
Like, a flight to moscow, that connects through frankfurt perhaps? Anyone ever tried this?
