I have tried all the usuals. How can I truly find that great air-fare deals that don't tack on all the tax in the end?

Thanks ahead.

i HAVE DONE pRICELINE SEVERAL TIMES.....SOMETIMES NOT TOO CONVENIANT

I guarantee you the taxes will ALWAYS be tacked on. Fact is that the taxes are always going to be paid no matter how great the deal. Now if you say where can I find a final price that includes it you have to just shop around. Prices are pretty much within 20 bucks of each other from one destination to the other. Kind of like buying gasoline you may save 5cents a gallon here or there but you will pay pretty much the same in any given area

Not a site, but Jet Blue has announced an all-you-can fly deal for $600 in Sept and Oct. You can fly as many times as you want during those months for that price TOTAL.

Pretty cool deal if you have one near you (I don’t).

Add to that -— Jet Blue has a special on that’s awesome for the months of Sept and Oct $600 total ( 599 plus taxes) for as many trips as you want to take during that time. So if you are going then you might want to look at that

Most likely not

I know but delta/usairways has this GREAT price and then in the end the final price is the norm.

so far the best I have found is the ones that don’t charge booking fees.

I now want some of that. Try chocolate pudding with whip cream beat in. it is the poor mans moose

I’ve found that when I find a good price, go and check another place, and return to the first one, the price is not available. Before returning to the best price, clean out your cache and remove all the cookies. I have found this process to work, in order to get the original price, especially if it’s only been a short while. Also, book as far in advance as possible.

[Dubya-M-DeesWent2SyriaStupid!]

I probably will but some of the prices to fly were the same I’d pay in gas.

[Dubya-M-DeesWent2SyriaStupid!]

THANKS!!!!!!!

I have had that happen. I will try the cookie thing THANKS!

The cheapest airline I have found is Southwest booked online at their website.

The other best site is cheapoair.com

for transatlantic you can’t beat airberlin.com you can book a one-way.. and come back whenever you want to.

I just booked a flight for October, DFW to Budapest round
trip $264 + $389 in taxes and fees + $653. One stop in
Frankfurt. I used flights.com a well known consolidator.
The airline is going to be Lufthansa. the same flight booked
on LH website would have been $913.
Good luck

264+389=653.
