We have to go for our Nationals at Houston, TX and we are from NY (LGA, for specifics) I need someones help in the expertise in FLIGHT BOOKING, FOR GROUPS. We have a group of 25 people that we need to take to Houston, any idea on how to get a cheap flights along with a good hotel in Houston for about four days for 25 people. Thanks in advance!How do you find cheap flights for groups?
For group travel, if you can get away with it, I recommend using Companion Airfare vouchers.
You basically buy 1 regular price ticket %26amp; get the 2nd ticket free for your companion. Sometimes those travel centers get fussy if you spell out for them that it's for group travel, but if each person only books a flight with one other person %26amp; doesn't wear matching t shirts when they check in, you could save a ton of $!
If you look online you can find them - here is one site I know that offers them - they might have a good hotel deal in Houston too, I don't know all the locations they offer - good luck!
Call Continental, and a couple of other airlines and ask for a group specialist.
Have an idea what the normal rate is for that weekend before you call, so you can see if they are giving you a good rate.
You may also want to consider Newark airport (EWR) . More often than not they have better fares than LGAHow do you find cheap flights for groups?
With a group that size you might be able to get a special rate on a charter flight. Ask your local travel agents about it. That's what I did when I went to Cozumel with a group of 20.
Just make sure everyone's committed to it. I had one guy in the group who put down a deposit and then flaked out and decided not to go at the last minute when I'd already bought the tickets.
there are quite a few sites that you can search that will likely give you the best prices available. just go here: http://bookme.com/ll99fqd.php and you will be able to compare prices on all the reputable travel sites in just a couple minutes. it's very convenient and will save you a bunch of time and money. Also, make sure you buy them online... otherwise they charge much higher fees for phone orders. good luck.
you can get similar flights for every one for exaple one group of 6 could fly out of jfk at 9 then another 6 flight out at 10 and so on then just all meet at a hotel
don't contact airline direct--get a professional travel agent to do it for you. They can fix you up with the hotel too.
