Travel / Airline tickets from LOT... changing flights. [29]

Hello, I was wondering if someone knew any tricks or cheap airline websites. My grandmother from Lodz wants to come visit my mother, brother, and me in the US. She is getting older and will not be able to travel soon. Also my brother has a brain tumor and his health is in question. I have been searching high and low, all over the internet. I found relatively cheap tickets to New York, but then the ticket to from NY to New Orleans is more than the ticket from Poland to NY. Any suggestions? Also, grandmother cannot be stuck in airports overnight or endure long layovers.

Thank you soooo much for your reply. I almost got duped with lufthansa airline. I noticed a great deal...well compared to all the other deals online. So i called to ask about my grandmother needing senior citizen assistance and only then did i find out that the price was only one way,(even though i specified round trip in the search). If one wants to fly to New York the prices are low, but that ONE little extra flight to New Orleans and the price MORE than doubles! I find that ridiculous! Also, forget "senior citizen discounts". I actually found the price goes up when I check the senior citizen box. Ugh! I'm so out of practice finding great airfare deals. And these websites keep transferring me to the same site, over and over! Searching for cheap plane tickets will most certainly put a damper on anyone's day. I did check out the Polish Lot Airlines but they do not travel to New Orleans. If I lived in New York this would be a much easier task.

Hello, It is Marika Sadkowska again. This time I have a question about changing flights. My grandmother came to visit from Lodz Poland. She is 80 years old and has difficulties traveling due to her age. Well, while she was here, she had a medical emergency. We had to call ambulance due to a bowel obstruction. Her plane ticket date to leave back to Poland is in two weeks. It is not safe for her to travel at this point, and we are not sure how to change her plane ticket without it costing money we do not have. After the medical costs we cannot afford to spend money to change plane ticket. Now I just need to ask if anyone has any experience with a similar experience and what can be done to change the fight for an extra month or two because my grandmother is not in great shape. She was told she might need surgery. I asked Grandmother which airline she flew here to New Orleans from Lodz and she is telling me Delta. If anyone needs any extra information to help our situation please ask and I will give whatever specifics necessary. Thank you and please either answer on this forum or message me. Again, my name is Marika Sadkowska. My grandmother's name is Asia Stanislawa Bilska. There is also the fact that my younger brother has a terminal brain tumor oligodendroglioma, and my grandmother wants to see my brother before she leaves, since it is a terminal brain tumor and this will be the last time my grandmother and brother will have to opportunity to see each other. He lives in St. Louis and has not been healthy enough to travel yet to visit. We have the medical paperwork to prove anything that needs to be proven. Please contact me with any possible advice. thank you.
