Pay in cash for a plane ticket at the airport?

I was just wondering if I can go to the airport and buy a round-trip ticket and pay in cash?


Or do I have to go to a travel agency?


Thank you!

Pay in cash for a plane ticket at the airport?
You can definitely pay by cash at the airport. Be prepared for extra screening of your bags and your person though. The last flight I was on someone had paid cash for a ticket. A little before boarding time TSA Offcials and local law enforcement came down and did a search of him. They made him show ID, his ticket, they emptied out his carry-on and went through it (at one of those little grey tables they have near the departures gates), and they did another pat down and wand search of his person.





If you have other means to pay, it is probably better (will save embarrassment), or see if you can get someone to put it on their credit card and you will pay them back.

Reply:You will be paying at the air fares cost without any discounts. Have you tried to find a plane ticket online. There are many sites you can find air fares such as:





travelocity.com


orbitz.com





If all you have is cash I guess those two will be your only options. Or maybe you can book it and then pay in cash.

Reply:Why not?





Airports do have ticketing office... Just two days ago, i went to the airport %26amp; bought a ticket, same day flight too. No questions asked for as long as you pay and you have the ID... after all thats business as usual.





Travel agencies are made for convenience of booking a flight or a vacation ahead but it doesn't mean you cannot buy your ticket at the airport ticketing office.





Have a nice trip!
Reply:hey! thanks for replying to my question.

Reply:You defiantly can but they find that suspicious so you may have to go thru extra screening at the gates and security.
