Tricks for finding airline promo codes
With a few trips of my own dancing in my hopeful imagination, an emailed press release about airline promo codes caught my eye immediately.

The tips are from the editors of ShopSmart, a magazine under the umbrella of Consumer Reports. What is most exciting is that these aren't the same old tips we see every season. Where to find the codes

- Airline Web sites: You might have to join the airline’s frequent-flyer program, and you might have to hunt—code deals could be under a different name. At United’s site, for example, you have to click “Special deals” under the “Planning & booking” tab.

- Airfarewatchdog: It’s the single best code source.

- FareCompare.com: (deals.farecompare.com/airline-promotion-codes). Click on “Real-time email alerts” or follow the deals on Twitter or Facebook.

- Southwest’s Ding service: This downloadable app appears on your desktop and dings to alert you to Southwest deals.

- American’s DealFinder service: This downloadable tool (not available for Macs) creates a profile for you and provides personalized offers based on your travel interests.

- Travel search engines: Click on “Private Sale” at Kayak for “limited inventory” sales. (You won’t find those deals at sites like Expedia and Orbitz.)

- TIP - Do a Web Search: If you can’t find codes on the site, try doing a Web search with the airline’s name and the term “promo codes.”

- TIP - Use Social Media: Certain promo alerts can be sent to you via e-mail, RSS feeds, Twitter, Jaiku, and Facebook. Most of the recent growth in promo codes has come from these channels.

Is there a catch?

- Flooded e-mail inbox: For every deal that interests you, you could receive several that don’t.

- Short shelf life: Promotions run out quickly, so the “you snooze, you lose” rule applies.

- Promo fares tailored to very specific routes: Some of the deals may also only apply to “qualifying flights,” so read the fine print.

- Airlines matching promo fares: The best bargains still require comparison shopping.

- Expiration dates: Some listings you’ll find online might be expired already.
