Air Fares Identifier
Air Travel
LCT offers a scheduled airline price identifier
service for people who require real advice on specific itineraries.
LCT provide the human touch which the discerning
passenger seeks in their modern day travelling arrangements.
Many passengers now automatically look on the web for all
types of fares especially European low cost airlines. Passengers
booking direct on the Internet help cut the staffing costs
for the airlines, but bookings are instant purchase
so you do not get time to think about your intended
purchase. Therefore the conditions and cancellation policies
must be very carefully studied before making any airline ticket
purchases.
Remember impulsive purchases on the web could result in the
total loss of your monies, and/or not even being able to change
the outward or return reservation. Without professional assistance
booking direct on the web can at first glance appear relatively
easy, however bear in mind the pitfalls.
- All transactions are instant purchase no time to consider
the booking
- Once tickets paid for by credit card the booking conditions
apply.
- Outward flights cannot be altered
- Sometimes return flights cannot be altered
- Because of no fault of your own, delays in traffic trains
etc. if your flight check-in is closed there may not be
another flight that day?
- Booking conditions and cancellation regulations must be
carefully studied before making any purchase on the web.
So for a service fee of around £30 the LCT
preferred travel agency can give guidance on your
bookings on scheduled and low cost frills airlines to Europe
so the above pitfalls can be extinguished .
You must be aware to certain European destinations the low
frills airlines and scheduled airlines serve the same city,
but they often use different airports, which could entail
unnecessary lengthy journeys at your arrival point. Another
important factor is to work out the distance and cost from
Office or Home when selecting your preferred airline fare
so you can compare the costs from different airports of embarkation.
Frequent Flyer Clubs
It is very important to become a member of a frequent flyer
mileage club for example if you travel on Czech Airlines (CSA)
frequently they are members of Sky Team the other members
are Aero Mexico, Air France, Alitalia, Continental, Delta,
Korean Airlines and North West Airlines. The benefits are
considerable they even induce travellers to book direct and
not through a Travel Agent, giving bonus miles.
LCT offers a comprehensive insurance, which
is strongly recommended.
BOOKING REQUEST PROCEDURE
LCT simply takes your request by emai,l
we will then give our observations and impartial advice plus
most importantly the booking conditions. This immediately
stops the unnecessary holding on to speak to a travel consultant
on a company you do not know and the call could be fruitless,
also some calls to travel agencies become very lengthy. Then
the consultants at our preferred travel agencies who are fully
licensed IATA & ATOL will be available for you to call
or will call you at your request.
Many travel agents only have expertise in certain areas of
the world this is the essential reason why we recommend various
preferred travel agents.
