If your plans include air travel in 2009 this is the time to shop. Three factors have converged to cause air travel to become an incredible bargain at this time.
· Turmoil in the economy means that fewer people are flying which is causing pressure on the airlines to lower prices. It is the law of supply and demand.
· Lower fuel costs have allowed the airlines to reduce their fares and pass the savings on to the air traveler.
· And a relatively strong dollar has caused overseas travel (especially to England and Europe) to become very affordable.
Discount airfare deals abound. AirTran Airways is selling one way tickets starting at $39. Virgin America is offering one way flights between $59 and $139. Southwest, United and American Airlines are also offering cheap airfares.
Travel experts are saying now is the time to purchase travel. They also predict a tumultuous 2009. Airfare prices are expected to fluctuate due to economic instability and rising fuel costs.
