Buy tickets early - Making reservations at least 3 weeks in advance will help you to get lower prices. If your schedule is very flexible you can try the "last minute deals", but for most of travellers this is a too risky strategy.

Purchase roundtrip tickets - Usually the cheapest fares are roundtrip tickets.

Travel on Tuesday, Wednesday or Saturday - These days are usually not as busy as the rest of the week, so ticket prices are often lower than the other days.

Spend a Saturday night at your destination - Low airfare tickets often require a Saturday night stay.

Do not discard unused tickets - Low fare tickets are non-refundable, but if you did not use it, most of the time you can still put the cost of that ticket toward a new reservation. Tickets can be used for up to a year after the original date.

Research and bargain - Get quotes from the internet. Then bring the lowest one to your travel agent and ask if he get a better deal. Ask if there are seat sales available, or a "companion fare" promotion. Try different airlines, different dates, different routes. The more flexible your travel plans are, greater are the chances to get a better deal.
