Poll question: Best flight broker? Orbitz, Travelocity, etc?
Edited on Thu Feb-23-06 06:01 PM by phusion
Hey DUers,

I would like to purchase a flight online at the best price, but there are so many choices out there. Travelocity, Orbitz, Priceline, etc.

In your experience, what is the best online airline ticket site?

Thanks!

edit: I would use that "name your own price" through Priceline, but they don't give that option since this is a multi-destination flight. :(

1. 9 times out of 10 I usually book direct from the airline
I only book from Ex$$$$pedia, Travelocity, etc if they have a really good deal.

The 10th time - and this is usually as a last resort - I've found Hotwire a good source, but they dont allow you to pick your flight times.

2. What he said.
I go to the airlines directly.

I used Expedia once for a hotel and got burned.
