Hi, I'm Michael Burton, with michaelburtonfilms.org, located in Salt Lake City, Utah. We're here
talking about Internet essentials. I'm going to show you right now how to buy airline tickets
online. All right, there's a couple of ways to buy airline tickets online. First, let's
start by bringing up our Internet. Now, once we're on the Internet we're going to go ahead
and go to Google. We use Google a lot for our search engine. You can use Yahoo, MSN,
any other search engine that you prefer. We're going to use Google. The best way to search
I I think; the easiest, real quickest way is to search for exactly what you're looking
for, Airline airline tickets. Once you get in there, it'll bring up a number of websites,
from expedia.com, Orbitz, Cheap Ticket, cheaptickets.com, Travelaol.com, etc., etc., etc. All these
websites; when you go to them will give you options to buy tickets at a discounted price.
They'll even let you set up packages so where you can buy tickets, hotel, and car rental
together and get a cheaper deal; usually, cheaper than going to the airline. That is
your other option to buy an airline ticket online is to go to an airline, which I believe;
let's, for example, let's try delta.com for Delta, or there's Southwest, or American Airlines,
stuff like that. Here's the Delta website, and on this website you can actually make
your reservations, purchase your ticket. They'll print you an e-ticket, and then, you can take
that e-ticket in to the airport with you when you go to get on your flight. And the the
reason why that's good is because it actually saves time. You don't have to wait in line
at the counter to purchase a ticket. You can go right up to the e-ticket kiosk, scan your
ticket barcode, and it'll instant you know, instantly bring up your information and print
you out your boarding pass, and can get you on the flight a lot quicker, as opposed to
waiting in line. That's the way to go if you want to purchase directly from the airline.
Now, the fees, I think are going to be a little bit higher. Sometimes they do have deals,
sometimes they don't. If you have a coupon or anything, or a coupon code this would be
the place that you would want to use it. Again, if you want to go to one of these other websites,
like Expedia, or orbitz.com they will be able to offer you better deals, and again, package
dealing with airline, car rental, and hotel, and you'll get a better deal altogether.
