You can book seats on the plane either when you make a flight reservation, after you purchase a ticket, or when you check in at the airport. Either way it is fine as long as you get the seats you want.

Here are the most common travel mistakes or myths among travelers.
This used to be true, but nowadays this truth fades away. You may get some good discounts booking your travel the last minute, but you have to be flexible on travel dates or travel destination because of availability and destination popularity. Never wait until the last minute when booking travel for holidays. This is the busiest travel time (including Fridays during summer months) when flights and hotels get booked the most.

Did you know that all airlines overbook flights by at least 10%?
Yes, this is true. This happens because airlines want to protect themselves in the case of cancellations and no-shows. There will always be people not showing up for their flights or those who need to cancel a trip at the last minute. If airlines do nothing, there will be many empty seats on planes and airlines might not be able to fill those up the last minute. Therefore, airlines sell more tickets than there are seats on the plane.

E-ticket is an electronic form of a paper ticket. Flight reservation is made as usual, but an agent issues an electronic equivalent of the traditional paper ticket. The flight information is not printed on the ticket, but it saved in the airline’ reservation system. Usually, a passenger receives a booking confirmation number (#9 on the paper ticket below) and itinerary showing the flight(s) details and/or e-ticket passenger receipt. Also, check out a sample e-ticket receipt coupon and receipt with itinerary in the picture. There is basically no much difference between the e-ticket receipt coupon and the traditional paper ticket receipt. (more…)

For some of us it may be very easy to make changes while others would not know where to start. You can change a ticket yourself by calling an airline directly or ask an agent who issued a ticket help you on that.
In most cases you need to contact the ticket issuer – your travel agency or an airline. Usually the airline will not talk to you and refer you back to the agency if a travel agency issued your ticket, unless you want to change the return trip and you have already flown a portion of your trip.
