Is it possible to buy e-ticket for north american flights for non-us
citizens at any of the secure internet sites?
I'd like to avoid an extra 35 dolars cost i'd have to pay Travelocity or
such simmilar sites for having my ticket internationaly delivered.
Thanks!

I believe a number of airline sites will allow it. Looking at
Southwest's site, as an example, they mention the use of foreign credit
cards.

I did this with American airlines (UK credit card) and it was no problem.

Have you tried buying directly from the airlines' websites?

Some airlines allow it, some don't. However, you friendly, local, travel
agency should be able to do it for you. If you go that route you should
also avoid the 10% government tax included in most US domestic fares (not
the extra bits you see in the tax box) and you might find that using a
"VUSA" fare (which is only available to non residents) is a benefit.

Thank you everybody for the info!
I'll be sure to try to local agencies now, didn't even consider they might
be cheaper.
And, of course, i am sure the direct air companies will be more than happy
to accept my money:-)
