Look no further for a one-way bargain from New York to Rio de Janeiro for $290 or from New York to Sao Paulo, also for $290.

Some general advice for finding the best ticket deals and cheap flights on the net:

Avoid the holiday seasons: Wherever possible, aim to book your flights outside the major holiday times when prices will rocket and deals will be few and far between.

Plan ahead: If you have no choice but to travel during the holiday periods, make sure you plan your vacation well in advance and book your flights before the seats start to fill up. Prices will only continue to rise and there won’t be any last minute bargains!

Be flexible: Consider taking flights outside of the most popular times; the weekends, Fridays and Mondays are often the most expensive days to fly, while the first and last flights of the day are often in less demand than daytime flights.

Compare carefully: Flight comparison websites abound and you risk getting bogged down in a mire of websites. If you already know your destination, it might be easier to look up a list of airlines at your airport and check their websites directly. Otherwise stick to a small number of popular comparison websites. Two good ones are Kayak (www.kayak.com) and Travel Supermarket (www.travelsupermarket.com.)

Good luck and buen viaje!
