Travel sites

Yay, this morning I got a price alert that the flight to FL for an October wedding I'm in dropped, over $100/person!  Knowing that the current price ($271) is close to what the flights usually "bottom out at" ($250), and with all of the issues in the Middle East, I'm thinking we should maybe book.  My thought is that it is an "off-time" for FL, but with oil/gas prices rising, the prices may not drop much more in the future.

Anywho, I'm wondering if it's cheaper to book flights and room at hotel (w/rm blks set up) separately or together.  What travel sites do you use to book flight/hotel?

Orbitz, priceline, expedia, travelocity...others? Any you recommend over others?

Re: Travel sites

  • I check kayak sometimes.  Also check the individual airline sites.  I have found on numerous occasions that they have been cheaper...not always but sometimes.  The fees and taxes for some reason as sometimes less causing the overall price to be cheaper.

  • I usually use Expedia or Travelocity, but I'm anxious to see what other people suggest.

  • We usually use Expedia, but we tend to fly primarily with JetBlue so we often just book through their site.

    And I say book it, especially at that rate.

  • I primarily use travelocity, but have used cheaptickets.com and hotwire in the past.  Normally it is a lot cheaper to book rooms and the hotel at the same time so I definitely recommend doing that.  Also they say that Tuesdays are the best day to purchase airfare tickets because that is when they are the lowest. 

    Check out this website that I found to see if any of the tips they give help you.  Happy shopping!
