I've always had good luck with travel agents. They have many choices for you to compare. Plan far ahead.

The cheapest way I know of is to be flexible. Try to avoid traveling during the busy tourist season. This may mean sacrificing warm weather, but then again, you're apt to find less crowds. Fly during the week if you can. Weekend fares tend to be much higher. Also research what other cities are near your area of interest. In planning a trip to Germany, I originally wanted to fly to Berlin. I found that Frankfurt was much less expensive. I can still travel to Berlin by train and save.

Call the airlines and see if they have any promotions and while you're at that ask for the rate for the date you are traveling. Also compare websites such as expedia.com, orbitz.com, travelocity.com too see how much their rate are. You can also try this website www.cheapescapade.com, they sometimes have good deals and specials on flights and their rate are usually equal or lower than the other mentioned websites.

It helps if you live closeby to a major hub. International fares are always less when you're flying direct from airports like LAX, Chicago O'Hare, or New York JFK.
