Airline discounts for adoption travel???

Hi, I'm wondering if airlines give discounts for domestic adoption. Have any of you ever received any such deals?

Thanks, Theresa

Unfortunately I have only heard of it for International adoption. But it does never hurt to call! We have always driven to get our children so this has never applied for us. Hopefully someone can help! Best wishes-Sarah(mom of 2)

Here is an older thread on this subject, a link to NWA, and another site with advice...

Thread from June 2003

Northwest Airlines (May be international only)

A site about affording adoption

Federal Travel's site (May be international only)

Hope this helps...we may be looking into this in the future as well. Please let us know what you come up with!

Good luck,

Cate

Thanks for the info. I looked at the sites and it is for international--not domestic. Oh, well. I also talked to Federal Travel a couple months ago and their prices were right in line with expedia or cheap tickets. I will say that the people there at Federal were wonderful to talk to so if you want to let an agent book your travel, go with them.

Hope its ok to write that!!!
