Got tired of priceline. Don't like to be stuck with the ticket.
We use, via the internet, Travelocity. Very good company! You can hold tickets at set prices until you make up your mind, then buy them when you are ready. They do usually give you a deadline, but in my experience, it's always very reasonable.
Also, in my frustration, I went to the continental website (by the advice of a continental phone ticket agent!) It was great! Just keep checking many times a day. The ticket prices change every minute as people cancel, etc. . .
I once waited until 3 days before I left for Belize, kept checking the continental website and got a ticket from Philidelphia to Belize city for $575.00. This is not bad at all considering my family has flown there tons and I think the lowest rate any one of us paid was $470.00.
Try the airlines website and just constantly check it!
Keep in mind that some airports are much more expensive to leave from. Any you can drive to?? This makes a big difference. I have a choice of 4 or so that I am willing to drive to and check all those each time. The airport closest to me (Syracuse, NY) always seems to be more expensive.
Anyway, just some friendly advice.
Good luck!
Jen
