Cheap Airfare
Cheap Airfare Wars - Internet vs Travel Agencies

11. Split Ticketing
If you are traveling on more than two flights, perhaps it is better to have a fare for one theoretical 'return' ticket and a different ticket for a second theoretical 'return' ticket (note that with a double open jaws type tickets, a 'return' ticket doesn't need to start and finish in the same place, or even have the same mid point in common either!).

Sometimes two tickets, each for only part of your total travel, can be cheaper than one ticket for the entire itinerary. And, even if you are just traveling to one destination, you still might have the opportunity to split your ticketing as you travel through a connecting city - for example to travel between Los Angeles and New York, there are probably a dozen or more convenient midway cities where you could change planes (and tickets) - perhaps for a lower fare.
12. Back to back and hidden city ticket loopholes
The crazy system of airfare pricing that the airlines have created for themselves contain some loopholes that they don't want you to know about, and which they claim constitute violations of their air fare tariffs. But if you know about back to back and/or hidden city ticketing, and if you know about the loopholes which the airlines will never and can never close, then you can save huge amounts of money.
The chances are your travel agent might know about these - but does the internet site you're visiting also tell you about these opportunities?

13. Unpublished fares
Consolidator fares are still only very rarely found through websites. While primarily involved with getting you discounts on international travel, consolidator fares also apply for travel between most major cities in the US ; potentially saving you huge amounts compared to unrestricted coach class fares.
If you are stuck with having to pay a very high fare to an airline (eg due to no advance purchase or no Saturday night stay) then a travel agent with good consolidator contacts can save you more than just about any website.
