That could be the secret to scoring more consistent deals on international flights, according to a new report. Flight deal site Going.com has released new data analyzing the United States airports that have offered the most��and the best��flight deals throughout the past year. To make the rankings, Going analyzed the more than 80,000 flight deals it sent its users, which departed from 200 airports around the U.S. on dozens of airlines.

The airports offering the most deals are located all over the country, meaning the perfect affordable fare to your dream destination abroad could be a short drive, train ride, or connecting flight away.
