Hi ladies...just wondering if anyone has any suggestions on finding cheap(er) airfares?
Aside from the usual suspects (kayak, orbitz, etc)....
H & I are traveling to Barcelona early June to visit friends, hit up Sonar Festival, and get the rest of our belonging that we left behind when we moved back to US. Right now, the airfares we are coming across are obscene. I realize that summer is 'peak' travel time, but really - we are finding airfares that are like 1200$ and up. The good news though - we don't have to pay for a place to stay - we have several people offering us to crash in their place, which helps.
We're trying to see if there's any other way with the airfare though....has anyone ever dealt with a travel agent directly and if so, do you think they can offer better prices on airfare? I was looking into airline consolidators too but I know almost nothing about this option at all....but if anyone else here has and can recommend something, please let me know....we are looking to travel June 6th-17th.....

this may or not may be true, but I read on an article on usatoday.com that when you do go to finally book that you should delete your cookies on your computer b/c your browsing history would show you've been looking at airfare and charge a higher price
