Are open jaw flights more expensive?

Should I book flights myself or through travel agent?

It depends… For a simple domestic round trip ticket, there's probably no advantage in booking with a travel agent. For more complex itineraries, international trips, or flights that are part of a more complete vacation (cruise, tours, all-inclusives, etc.), the small fee most travel agents charge may be well worth it!


How much money should you have to fly private?

Why is group travel better?

Is it worth booking seats?

For nervous flyers and people who don't like flying, the least you can do is to make yourself comfortable by choosing your seat.

Do airlines charge more for group bookings?
