| (Dow Jones) Sorting Out Airline 'Web Fares' Takes Savvy Sorting Out Airline 'Web Fares' Takes Consumer Savvy Quote:
Some of the cheapest fares, a new class of tickets sold online known as "Web fares," are last-minute savings offered by airlines a few days before a scheduled flight. They typically shave an additional 10% to 20% off the lowest published price - including all fares on the Internet - but can save a traveler as much as 70%. Most Web fares are put on the Internet on Wednesdays for travel on the upcoming weekend, but some tickets can be booked weeks in advance.\
