The logic is simple, they are priced to make a profit.

In my experience you pay more for sudden flights. The only way to get a good discount is when the time table is in their hands such as when you find an underbooked flight or if you are willing to be bumped until an underbooked flight comes up.\n\nYou may get lucky though.

Your best bet is to call the airline.  Different airlines have different policies and fees depending on the ticket.  It's possible that he may be able use that ticket as a credit towards a future flight, though he might incur a transfer fee.

“The airlines use the public air space and public facilities to profit from the transport of millions of people who have no alternative but to use their services"\n\n“The price-rule compliance issues must be addressed by the people who created them directly with the people who are demanding them.”\n\n=)

I had planned on driving during my vacation this summer so I could take my dogs, but I'm not so sure now. I may leave them behind and fly. Air Tran is selling one way tickets for $89. We had planned on going to Florida and Vegas but whenever I think about the gas prices, staying at home and doing home improvements and landscaping might be more satisfying. And for the person who said you were indigent is just ignorant.

He doesn't sound like an ass, just sounds a bit cautious.  If you truly are interested and can financially afford it, why don't you offer to pay for half of the ticket and he pay for the other half?

Check around online. There are several online discounters, like expedia, priceline, orbitz, etc. This is usually the cheapest way to go. But you should also check directly through airline sites to see if they are running a special. For example, air tran often offers discounted tickets on Tuesdays and Thursdays and it is cheaper than through other online sites. Also watch in the newspapers and such, they often advertise specials in the newspaper.

You can pick your seats better with brokers, but if the event is in demand you will always pay more than with ticketmaster.  check local classifieds, craigslist.com, or ebay for last minute deals.\n\nSome good deals slip by, and sometimes people can't go at the last minute. (so check regularly)\n\nIf price is no option, brokers can get you anywhere.

If you didn't buy a ticket, you didn't win.  It's that simple.  \n\nAnything else you read in your e-mail is probably a scam where someone is trying to con you out of your money.

Ticketmaster is tricky, I and several people I know have tried to make sense of how their allocating of seats works but there doesn't seem to be any reason behind it. It càn pay off to check seats a few times.

Simple. Because Ticketmaster will not be getting their cut of your profits. And we all know Ticketmaster is omnipresent and omnipotent. ;)

Through FIFA, the legal way or you can buy them from a tout at a game, but you will pay a lot more.  England V T&T tickets were going for 600 euro.  I have a world cup final ticket I will sell you for 2500 euro.
