Avoid the Wait by Calling Customer Service

Airline tickets can be booked online or by phone, but depending on your preference, you might prefer talking to a human being. In that case, you could have encountered wait times that seem like they take hours, but there's a way to get past that. Customer service queues are much shorter than any other department, so calling them means that you won't have to wait as long as you've waited in the past.
