Hi everyone, I'm sorry but I need some help that is not related to admissions. I'm trying to book airline tickets online using a "name-your-own-price" tool at www.priceline.com . I'm dying to find someone who has used this kind of tool before and is able to give me some advice. The website simply has this system where you name your own price for the ticket and enter your information as usual; but the difference is that you're not given the option to choose your departure or arrival exact times ( they just say you’ll travel between 6:am and arrive before 12:30am). I know this is frustrating but the price difference is amazing! Anyone here willing to offer some help, please?

Yeah, what you see is what you get. They basically find the flight that needs the most passengers and they throw you on it...which means that you are essentially getting the least desirable flight option. It's cheaper, sure, but you could be on a flight that is often riddled with delays, has tight (or overly long) layovers, or any number of other inconvenient factors. It's basically an option for people on a tight budget, or people who truly don't care how and when they will get to their destination.

I highly recommend trying google.com/flights.

Make sure you're using a private browsing window when looking for flights as most websites use your cookies and search history to hike up the prices. If you haven't, just erase your history and use a "incognito" windows from now on. Cheers!
