Air Courier
Have you heard of air couriers? That is, people who carry documentation/packages for companies on airplanes in return for discounted ticket prices? It sounds like a dodgy idea, but I've heard a number of people talk about it.
Somebody I know was talking about flying to Japan and it turned out that he is paying half the price that I am! When I asked how that was possible he said it was via an air courier service. As there is only one person per flight who can qualify his partner is flying out on the second flight of the day. Now that is money saving!
Is this practice legal? Would you risk carrying something for somebody? I'm not sure I would.
Impressive money saving there, Martin Lewis would be proud.
Sounds like an interesting idea. Did a brief google but the only relevant pages I saw looked a bit dodgy.

Yes, it's one of those things which sounds too good to be true.
Did you read this page?
