Airline tickets sold by us are special negotiated airline tickets, also known as consolidated airline tickets. Consolidated airline tickets are generally the best discounted airline tickets available. Airline tickets we offer are usually cheaper than the lowest available published airline tickets. Airline tickets we sell are offered to the general public by consolidator companies. Consolidators negotiate rates with all major carriers and then resell these bargain airfares to travel agencies with big discounts. Consolidated airfares should not be confused with standby or charter fares. While some agents who deal in consolidated airfares also deal in charters, there are important differences. Consolidated airfares are bookings on regularly scheduled flights of major air carriers, which are generally much more dependable than charter operators.
