How to find a ticket at a suitable price

Traveling by plane is good, and traveling by plane cheap is even better. Often people have to give up the safest, fastest and most comfortable mode of transport in favor of trains and buses only because of the high cost of tickets, and at the same time statistics of the Transport Clearing House says that on average 25% of seats on planes remain free. It is simply unprofitable for companies to underestimate ticket prices in advance, and when the date and time of the flight are approaching, it is almost impossible to quickly sell the remaining tickets. So it turns out that planes carry air.

However, there is an option that is beneficial for both airlines and passengers. There is a resource called "Fare-Master" and is engaged in the sale of air and railway tickets, and on the resource itself there is a section called "Sale of free seats in airplanes". That's where you can buy a ticket, and the acceptable price is indicated by the client himself.

How does it work?

Very simple. Airlines want to reduce profit losses, so they agree to sell tickets for the remaining seats much cheaper. In this case, the service acts as a link between customers who want to buy a cheaper ticket and airlines who agree to sell a ticket at the price specified by the customer. As a result, everyone is satisfied.

How to use it?

Even easier. After a person is blown away by the prices of tickets to the desired destination, he goes to the section of the sale of free seats on airplanes.

Here you need to enter the necessary data about where, where and when you want to fly, your personal identification data, and also specify the desired ticket price.

Now we are booking an application using a VISA or MasterCard plastic card through the payment gateway of Alfabank. This amount is blocked on the card for up to 5 days, during which the application is sent to the airlines participating in the program. If there is a company among them that agrees to sell a ticket for the specified amount, then a regular electronic ticket is issued to the client, and if there were no people willing to sell a ticket for these days, then the block is removed from the amount and the money is returned to the client's control. Quite simple and safe.

The status of the application is monitored directly on the website, but if no one has sold you a ticket at your price, then you can create a new application.

What's the catch?

There is no catch, but there are some limitations and inconveniences:

1. it is not possible to choose an airline, because the ticket will be purchased from the first responder
2. it is not possible to select the flight time, since the minimum time interval for searching for a flight is a day
3. it is not possible to select the airfield where the flight will arrive in the selected city
4. if the date of departure or arrival is indicated in an interval of several days (this increases the likelihood of finding a "good" airline that will agree to sell you a ticket at your price), then the ticket can get on any of the selected days

The main thing is that with all this, you are still flying by plane.
