FAQ: How do you get a refund if your airline ticket price drops?

Answer: The airline will not contact you. You need to be checking yourself to see if the price changes. If so, some airlines will give you credit for the difference.

I did this with Southwest Airlines, so I saved about $40 on a ticket that was $140. Now I have a credit that I have to use for a year from the purchase date. so I have to remember to use it, the code and to plug in the numbers.

It took me about 10 minutes to find the cheaper price online and get the credit. You could also call the airline and ask them to make the change, but these days the hold time may be longer than what you prefer to wait on the phone.

RIP Dean Alphonso Buell

Celebrating the life of Dean Alphonso Buell in April, 2012 with his mom and two friends. Dr. Travelbest is priviledged to know Raquel Giraldez, mother of the deceased, as she was the designer and illustrator and most travelled friend of Dr. Travelbest in 1993 as the book was being written and published. Dean was involved with the editorial, even though he was a youngster at the time. Thanks, Dean, for sharing your mom so that Dr. Travelbest could teach others about Independent Travel. Speaking of travel, this is the view from the front yard of Raquel's home in Buellton, CA. The mountains in the distant background are picture postcard on this memorable day, right near the 101. (Photos: top: view from Raquels, bottom: center, Raquel and right, Rosanna Figuerola (sp?) at the Celebration of Dean's 24 years on the earth.) There were so many stars that night, we knew that Dean was watching us from above with his new friends.
