    Good morning, Megan. I noticed that your example only includes booking with an airline and not a third party travel agent. On a shorter flight, I still may consider a travel agent if they are substantially less than the airline. However, I mainly take international flights to Asia, where I stay 4-8 weeks. After having to come back early last October because my brother died, I realize now that airlines will not deal with your ticket unless you purchased directly from the airline. I had to get my ticket changed on Singapore Airlines and Singapore Airlines refused. BudgetAir had no phone number and didn’t respond to my email for 4 days, after I bought a one way ticket for $620 (mistakenly thinking that I was allowed 2 checked bags, which cost me dearly at check in).
    I’ll check your link on your travel insurance and see if they have any Bereavement policies available. Thanks again!

    It’s hard for me to learn thing so I have 2 questions. 1. What is a carry on bag (not sure why it says $30 for 1 bag when a carry on bag is free). 2. 6 pm to 9 pm is a 3 hour flight, why does it say 6 hour flight?

    • @spicybrown75
      @spicybrown75 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      1. Check in bag
      2. Total is taking in the time difference. So even though flight leaves at 6 pm Eastern time, it arrives almost 6 hours later in Pacific time at 9 pm. When it's 6 pm in NY, it's only 3pm in CA. Flight arrives in CA at 9 pm. 3pm-9pm Pacific time equals 6 hours.

      Yes, you will be assigned a seat at check in. Many airlines allow for free seat selection during the online check in time which starts 24-48 hours prior to your flight. You can change your assigned seat then for free but your selection will be more limited. Happy travels!
