Military spouse stationed overseas wanting to go home for the holidays?

my husband is getting deployed in a month, and i want to go home for the holidays (very early nov to late dec) with our 8/9 month old son (how old he will be when traveling). I'm wanting to find the cheapest, and the most cooperative airline to help me since most layovers i'm comming across are about an hour. This will be my second time flying, our son's first. and i'm already a nervous wreck because of that and it being a good 11+ hour flight.





I'm really looking for discounts or trying to travel space a but i've had no luck at finding space a flights.





fyi, my only chice to fly out of is yokota and naritaMilitary spouse stationed overseas wanting to go home for the holidays?
No. 1 Travel has really good offers from Japan, and they do bookings in English. http://www.no1-travel.com/





Compare here to see if military discount is cheaper: http://www.norfolkairport.com/ -- This airport website is the only source I know that lets you check for military discounts on flights--regardless of where you're starting from or going to.





Compare all of them to http://www.bookingbuddy.com just to be sure you've got the absolute best offer.





A 1 hour connection is pretty good for international flights; less than that, and you might not make it because connecting airports are usually massive.Military spouse stationed overseas wanting to go home for the holidays?
here are some really good discount flight websites, hope they help you for your journey.

some of these may not let you purchase any tickets, because you are not in the united states, but i would think quite a few would work. they are the best discount flight websites ive seen. you may want to check orbitz.com. i wish the very best for you and your family.
Call American Airlines directly and ask for their military discount. We're stationed in the UK and I saved over $200 by doing this. A friend here saved almost $1000. There is a $10 phone booking charge but it was worth it!





Have a great time visiting your family! Praying that your husband stays safe. Best wishes!
Can the military provide you with a flight home? I know my husband used to talk about doing so (he was in Navy Aviaiton) but I don't know if dependents can do it. Also go to his command, they may be able to help you find cheap, convenient flights home. Good Luck, and wish your husband the same, I appreciate what he is doing for our country, and you too!!
