Tip 1: How to choose an airline



The main criteria for choosing an airlinereliability of flight, comfort and quality of service. The price policy in this case is allocated to a separate indicator. Not always tickets with low cost justify the hopes and expectations of supporters of air travel.





How to choose an airline

















Ticket price

Most people tend firstpay attention to the ticket price. However, when comparing the price policy of several airlines, it is necessary to understand what makes up this or that amount. A flight that is low in cost may not include a full board on board the aircraft. Additional mark-up often provides not only high-quality food, but also implies a huge selection of dietary, children's, vegetarian or diabetic menus. In addition, you can limit the variety of foods that are used for cooking. For example, exclude flour products, fatty foods or give preference to the traditional cuisines of the world. The cost of the ticket is also affected by the class of the intended service. At the moment there are three main types of service during the flight - Economy, Luxury and Business. The price of such tickets can differ several times, despite the same route.

How to save money

The most optimal way to save on air ticketsis considered the choice of economy class. However, it is very difficult to call such a flight comfortable. The optimal option in this case is the selection of the tariff. Pay attention to the offers of several airlines. Many of them offer seasonal discounts, benefits for pensioners and students, profitable flights for couples and excursion groups. Do not immediately buy a ticket for the first company that came across, it is much more reasonable to carefully study several possible offers. Just pay attention to the possibility of refunding tickets. Some companies accept them withholding a significant amount, while others return money in full.

Reliability of airlines

The reliability of the airline and the degree of serviceabilityaircraft - the main criteria that must be paid attention during the trip. Many can erroneously assume that only trusted companies should give preference, but not always the duration of their existence is an indicator of quality and reliability. The airplane is the main element that should cause you the greatest interest. If you have the choice between a new model and air transport, whose age is estimated for decades, preference should be given to newer aircraft. In addition, do not be lazy to study both the statistics of flights of airlines, as well as information about aircraft in the park. In a broad sense, all modern airlines can be divided into two main categories - budgetary and private. In the first case, aircraft are mostly used outdated models, and all additional services of the service will have to pay a certain amount. Private companies can afford to purchase more advanced aircraft models and provide top class service by including its cost in the ticket price.
