Consider departing from or arriving at other airports for a better deal. Enter your preferred departure and arrival points in the form fields, then click on the 'Nearby airports' function below. It will list any available options.
If your plans aren't set in stone, click on the 'Show flexible dates' option to browse flight deals for multiple departure dates. Go with any suitable cheaper fare you find.
To filter your results, hit 'Show options.' You can search based on airlines, seating class, and nonstop and refundable flights. You can also choose whether you want to fly in the morning, afternoon or evening under 'Sort & Filter' to the left.
