The point of this article is to know all the persons that are entitled to discount plane tickets simply for their occupational status, their age or conditions, or simply because of the reasons for the trip. Let's take a look at who are those lucky ones!

One of the groups of people that are entitled to discount plane tickets are the clergymen. If you are a clergyman, the best thing you can do is to let the airline know and directly ask for a discount applied to your occupation. The worst that can happen is that they say no, but normally they have special reduced fares for you. You will need your Clergy Identification Card to prove it, so don't try to pretend anything you aren't!

Another group with the benefits of discount plane tickets are soldiers. If you are traveling for military duty, the airline should know, as you will find great discounts traveling in this way, probably of more than 50% in some cases. Again, don't dress up like a soldier, they have ways to check it, my friend.

Senior citizens is one of the biggest groups of people entitled to discount plane tickets. The discounts can be pretty good, but as the groups of senior people is very large, airlines have a limited number of seats for you. You will need to plan ahead if you want to grab any of this bargains. Some pages offer the senior option when selecting your flights online. If not, just give them a call and let them know.

As a student aged between 12-22, you will be also entitled to some benefits in a different way. There is a page called StudentUniverse, where they negotiate the fares with different airlines in a way that you can be able to find discounted deals. Discount plane tickets are not available for all flights, as you will notice. Sometimes, the airlines that fly a route are not inside the program. There's nothing you can do about it. As always, the most flexible you are, the most probable it is that you can find one of these bargains.

Probably you will not know about this one, but teachers and any kind of faculty members are also welcome in StudentUniverse to join and get the same cheap tickets that students can get as commented above. You lose nothing to take a look at it to check if your route is covered. Normally they operate flights within the US and departing from the US, but I sometimes have seen other routes. You never know.

Traveling in family will be also nearly always cheaper. It is not only about the discounts for double occupancy of a room, but also for airfare. If you are traveling with another family member the best you can do is to tell the airline and see if you can get any discount plane tickets because of that. Family discounts should be the words to use, and family involves that at least a husband and a wife are traveling together.

Many times, specially for business purposes, you will be traveling to attend a meeting. Let the airline know, as they normally have some special discount plane tickets for this occasions. In any case, again, be prepared to present some proof of your conference, such as the register documentation or receipts in case you payed to attend.

Concluding, even if you think this is not going to be your case, the best thing before booking any flight with any airline is to speak with the people there. They will not tell you anything unless you directly ask for it. That is the way this world works, it is not about lying, but it is about limiting your information. If you ask, they won't lie to you in most of the cases. But don't expect people to tell you what will entitle you for discount plane tickets.
