Air flight tips needed - last minute travel
I have a special friend in LA, I'm trying to get her out to meet me in Vegas on weekends as often as possible. Her last flight was only $114 round trip, but now the cheapest flights I can find start at $200 or so. So instead of booking in advance I am now thinking about last minute flight opportunities - arriving at the airport and giving it a shot with no advance warning.
How does this work? Do you have to go to each ticket counter and hope you get lucky, or is there a same day ticket broker on the net? What kind of deals are typical, will prices drop 25% 1 hour before the flight leaves to assure the plane is booked? How complicated is this to do? Will she be forced to go to the airport or can we do this remotely? English is a second language for her so I am trying to make this as simple as possible. Thanks!
