Booking flights has never been easier since the invention of the Internet.
You can do everything you've ever had to do in person online now, saving you time and money.
Instead of calling around or visiting many different air lines in person to see how much they are charging for a certain flight, all of the information is in front of you on the screen.
Each air lines individual site will have an easy to use search function so you can see what flights are going to your destination and what time they're leaving, and how much extra you'll have to pay for check in baggage, so you won't be surprised when you get your bill.
You can also book your return flight at the same time, so there's no need to worry about getting a better deal later on.
Booking online also has a price advantage, because the price listed is the most up to date.
The more sites you explore, the greater discount you can get.
For travel agents also, Internet is of great benefit.
It has simplified the booking procedures and hassles to a great extent.
It gives them real time information, which directly decreases the involved time and increases the customers.
Similarly, instant confirmation is sent to the customers.
Travel agents can also save a huge sum of money by going online as they cut communication costs and marketing costs.
So, internet has given a lot of relief not only to travelers, but also to travel agents.
