This is an ancient topic but it will never die as it keeps giving battle to all us who try to look for the best options when it comes to flying. There is really no exact methodology to know how much an alternative route will benefit with your flight.

If you are going to travel to any destination in the world, many times it will happen that a direct flight will not be the best option relative to the price. I have written a lot about alternative airports but there is a big difference between an alternative airport and an alternative route. When we speak about airports we mean those ones that are placed near to the one where we would take the direct flight to. And near means a maximum of 100 Kilometers, to set an example.

A low cost airline is a carrier that offers generally low fares in exchange for reducing many of the traditionally offered passenger services, by no means compromising the security of the travelers. The general characteristics of the low cost airlines are:

Flying to cheaper, less congested secondary airports and flying early in the morning or late in the evening to take advantage of lower landing fees; short flights and fast turnaround times, allowing maximum utilization of the aircraft; direct sales of tickets, especially over the Internet, avoiding fees and commissions paid to travel agents and reservations systems; eliminated in-flight catering and other complimentary services, replaced by optional paid-for in-flight food and beverages.

Discounted travel for students is really nothing new. But like many other things in life, you need to know their existence before being able to ask for them, and this is a bit the general problem that exists today and why airlines and hotels are making so much money out of the very limited knowledge that population has. In the end, it seems that everybody knows their obligations but very few people really understands their rights.

Let’s go on with that then. Discounted travel for students is a reality you can find in many airlines. Simply you need to tell them that actually you are a student. They will need some proof to make sure that you are not taking advantage of the situation, and after that you will be given almost always a discount that can vary from a 10 to a 50% in some cases.
