Cheap Airfare

[moe666]

SD, give Eva a try direct to there web site, great airline and as cheap as anyone. I will not use bucket shops are other such middlemen any longer to many problems.

Have found that www.kayak.com has the best up-to-date prices.

For comparison from SFO, my flights have generally run about $900 to $1,200 with taxes. Granted, I usually flight out Friday night and return on the weekend, thus generally having the most expensive fares due to timing, but I find your assessment about ticket prices is correct. Travel is up, fuel prices are up, etc... so the airlines are being aggresive on international flights, which is the one area of their business that they can make great margins. Also, as it seems you are traveling during summer and on peak season, be prepared to pay higher costs.

Check the websites directly
Thai, JAL, Malaysia, Eva, Cathay, etc...

Honestly, I think you just have to suck it up and pay the price. I'd suggest trying to get free tickets through promotions, credit card, airline partners, etc. but even the free seats are hard to come by. The availability is very limited and you often need to book out far in advance. The best way to manage airfares is to go during off-season times and be willing to fly out at weird times. I know for me, if I were able to leave mid-week I could save myself $200 a trip.

Airfares are high now because flights usually stop in Taiwan where it's the busiest right now even if it's "low" season in Thailand.
