Plane Tickets
What are some good sites to go to and check out ticket prices?
I have been to priceline and cheaptickets.com and they are about the same prices. The trip is to Canada.

I've used Travelocity.com and expedia.com from time to time. There is another called Orbitz.com. Haven't used it so don't know anything about it.

I typically try travelocity and expedia then go to the airlines site who had the cheapest ticket. Sometimes buying direct is a little cheaper.
There's another site that supposedly seaches all the airlines sites. I think it's called kayak.com

It probably depends more on the airline. In about 3 weeks I'm going to Montana. My grandmother is paying for all our tickets. Well she bought everyone else's in May. But didn't buy mine because I wasn't sure if I could go. Well I could and she just bought them last week.
Well I was looking at different sites. She bought my dads and grandfather's on Orbitz in May. I don't know how much. I looked on Orbitz and the price was about $590-600. That was for a NWA flight. I decided to take a look at the NWA website. I did a search there and found the tickets were $550. About $40-50 cheaper.
So I suggest, do a search on the different sites(Orbitz, Expedia, etc...), find the cheapest flight, or the one that best suits you, and then go to that airlines website. Because if could be alot cheaper if you buy directly from the airline.

I actually work in Lancaster, so if you bring me some money, I'll see what I can find.

 Sure. What I'm worried about is whether people have had problems with any of these sites. I just want to make sure that I don't get screwed over. |
