Discount Ticket Brokers

AN AIR TICKET from a discounter, also known as consolidators, can often save you 5%-30% off the airline's cheapest advertised Coach/Economy fares almost any time of the year to Asia. These savings can be considerable, especially when you need to buy a ticket on short notice.

In order to know that you're getting the best deal, you will first need to do some comparison shopping. Call around to a couple of full service travel agencies and your favorite airline. See what the going rate is for the ticket you want. This will give you an idea about what the fair market value is of the ticket you're looking for.

Next, go to the listings in the following section and look for consolidators who provide tickets to your destination. Get several quotes before deciding on the best deal. Good luck!
