| Q. | What is the best way to get death discounts for flights? | Related Search:
Air Travel | | | My mother passed away & I need to find the least expensive way to get my daughter from Fla. to Louisiana for the funeral in 3 days.
| | A. | The person who mentioned that airlines don't do this anymore is incorrect. Though they are decidedly less common than they were even a few years ago, a few airlines in the US still offer what are known as bereavement fares -- though, as one person correctly noted, Delta only does it for international flights. (Information for the airlines that still offer these fares can be found by going to the links below -- directly from the airlines that offer them.)
To obtain a bereavement fare, you must call the airline directly to book the tickets. You'll want to check with other sites and airlines, though, to see whether there are cheaper flights than what the bereavement fare offers, because it's not always the lowest fare. This is because the typical bereavement fare is a discount off of the full fare, and other airlines may still offer a regular fare that is lower than that. | | | |

Question
Is it safe to fly on a long flight with a small baby?
I read somewhere that the air quality wasn't good and babies lungs weren't developed enough to cope with it and it could bring about cot death.
I ask as a grandmother.
Answer
We are always delighted to answer queries from concerned grandparents, and this particular worry is certainly one which has been disseminated in the media in the recent past.
In fact there is no evidence that long-haul flights pose a cot death hazard to small babies, and I personally would have no hesitation in taking a healthy baby of my own on a flight.
The air is recycled in modern jets, but as I say there is no strong evidence that there is any cot death risk.
SIDS, the charity that looks into the study of sudden infant death syndrome, does not consider long-haul flights a risk either. In many ways small babies travel far better than older children as far as parents are concerned. | | | |

Air Travel | | | Hi i was just wondering if anyone could give me a answer.
My dad died in a motorbile accident this morning and i need to fly from Melbourne to Townsville ASAP but i dont have the money a friend was saying if there is a death in the family you can get a free flight.
Does anyone know if this is true.
Thanks for you're answers in this hard time for me
| | A. | I am sorry to hear about your dad's death. Unfortunately airlines will not give you free flights but some do have bereavement fares if you can give a proof of death. These fares are somewhat discounted because normally you would have to pay a lot of money if you buy a ticket at the last minute. However because airlines are losing money, many of them have gotten rid of bereavement fares. You will have to contact different airlines to see if they have this. | | | |
