Don't waste money while you're in college by paying too much for air travel.  Go online to determine flights available, compare rates, make reservations, and buy tickets.  Start right now in the Expedia box at left.

If you are a student in need of air travel to go between home and school, or perhaps doing some other education-related travel inside or outside the U.S., let the Internet be your resource in finding the best rates.  Usually, the travel Web sites ask you to establish a username and password before you can take full advantage of their services.  Of course, they would like for you to purchase tickets through them, so they are designed to lead you in that direction.  Be sure you have found a flight and ticket cost that you really want before you enter your credit card number and proceed to the conclusion of an online transaction.  Once you complete the transaction, you have made a commitment to purchase the tickets.  Now, here are some recommended Web sites:
