Cheap Airfares - any hidden gems ??
Hello everyone.
I'm looking to book an internal flight for the start of March and was wondering if anyone on here had any good site that they use for cheap fares apart from the obvious expedia, hotwire, travelocity, etc.
Thanks in advance

Thanks for all the responses so far - karma on its way.
Is there anyway to trick say priceline into showing you the times of the cheapest flights before you actually book ??
I'm sure there prob isn't, but there's a few shrewdies on here so I figured that it wouldn't do any harm to ask

The times of the cheapest flights tend to be either unsocial/incovenient hours or they're not non-stop flights so you have to make a connecting flight somewhere.
Try these:
http://www.cheaptickets.com (you can put in your preference eg. morning or evening departures)
http://www.orbitz.com
http://www.cheapflights.com
http://www.hotwire.com

cheapflights.com seems to be pretty good at first glance.

Yes the trolley dollies were wearing their trademark tight T shirts.

and if anyone sees any good transatlantic fares for say early February give me a peep .... turns out the last BA promotion would have been perfect but I didn't know I needed it and now it's expired.

Some of the sites listed above seem pretty good though.
