There are times when airfares climb – often at an alarming rate. Airfares apparently will continue to go up as the fuel situation lingers and worsens. There are two ways airline tickets are sold: at published rates and at bulk rates. Bulk-rate fares, which usually are lower than the published rates, are offered mostly by wholesalers and travel agents.
When you buy a published-rate reservation, you must pay the full price at the time. That price is locked in and not affected by the increase. When you make a bulk-rate reservation through certain Hawaii-based travel agents, you make only a deposit.
