Priceline's name your own price feature works best for flights when you don't care when your flight takes off that day and/or how many delays. You can get really cheap filler tickets if you name a price and don't indicate when you care to leave.
Is it a flight anytime that day? If you need a certain flight like only after work or something it kinda fucks you right?
Priceline gave me several options as far as times go, for that particular flight. I used the +/- 2 days option, but reguardless of how I searched after finding that flight, the price was the same. That was a one way flight, I departed at the crack of dawn, and received no meal, but the price was well worth it.
I've flown that same route several times over the past 8 years, and always paid between $375 and $550 for a round trip ticket, even purchasing 2 weeks in advance.
You know that commercial where Will Shatner comes up on a guy putting in a price for a hotel on priceline and then calls the guy names until he enters a price that's half of the usual price for that hotel? I thought that was a bunch of BS but thought I'd give it a try. I just got three nights in Baltimore's Inner Harbor for $125 a night! Most of them go for $300 or more the same weekend, including this hotel. :bowdown:
