Finding and booking cheap flights online can be quite a hair raising experience, with many people still opting to let travel agents do all the dirty work for them. However, it is more than likely that you are paying way too much for your flights as travel agents will add their mark up and service charges onto the final cost. Booking cheap flights online is very simple and easy and as long as you use a reputable site there will be no problem, and using a credit card will add to the security of your booking.

There are quite a few comparison sites that will search your departure and destination points and search across many different airlines and return the best price for you. This will usually be indirect flight services as these generally tend to be the cheapest - so be careful when booking that you are not booking a flight that will have you waiting for hours and hours in an airport that may have very limited facilities.

Many sites will have the standard return and one way booking searches, however if you wish to fly back to a different airport than that of your departure airport, or add a third or fourth leg onto your journey, you will need to look for the Multiple Destination facility, and this could also be found by looking for the Advanced or More Search options buttons or text. This is very handy if you want to book multi destination flights. Once you have searched across your favourite cheap flights comparison sites, it is also wise to check the website of the airline that is coming up as the cheapest or most convenient flights for you. This may be even cheaper still and they may give you options to search flexible dates to make sure you are getting the very best cheap flights.
