What airlines offer discounts if you need to fly for a funeral?

funeral flight discounts

What airlines offer discounts when needing to fly for a funeral? Which airlines offer the greatest discounts? Are there any restrictions/requirements?

It would just be domestic flights in the US.
NO, I have been told by several people that some airlines to offer discounts. Maybe not all of them, but some.
Thanks, I found that Continental offers bereavement fares
funeral flight discounts.

Roger K:Bereavement fares are sometimes available. Some airlines post information about those on their websites.

Go to any travel site and put in the cities you need to fly between, and some appropriate travel dates. That way you can find out which airlines fly the route you need. Then CALL each one and ask them directly. They will know:
- IF they offer any such fare
- WHAT the rules, terms and conditions are for getting such a fare.

It will take you 2 minutes to find the airlines, and slightly longer to call a few of them and ask the questions, but you will get the real answers.

My understanding is that the discounts that you may get are off of the full fare price, and that you may actually find much better prices on travel websites for a restricted, discounted ticket.

Good luck.

RoofingPrincess:And IF a bereavement fare exists, you will be asked to furnish information – like the name of the funeral home, so they can contact them and confirm your eligibility for the fare.
