Got to www.sidestep.com and use it. It will even compar prices from all the other sites.

But I'm in a good mood so far, so here is what I got from ALT
242.00 /person

ATL 8:50A -12:54P LAX 3/3

LAX 3:46P -12:19A ATL 3/7

310 was the lowest from Nashville

I leave Baltimore at 540PM Wed and leave Monday 935AM from LAX, both non stop flights with southwest for $238.

Fly to John wayne if you can its about 20-30 min from HB everything else is about a hour or more,, and then add horrible LA traffic.

JetBlue doesn't service the ATL area to their California (Long Beach/LAX) destinations, unfortunately.

I recommend booking flights with at least 1 lay-over to get the better fare, but that's common sense.

Sometimes the layovers aren't worth it...Like for me with Southwest...the difference between Non stop and one layover was 10 bucks. Not worth it to me, but it's fine if you want to go ultra cheap. Always check out both ways.

Wow I thought flying from hawaii was expensive. We all got our tickets at $299 roundtrip from honolulu to lax. Damn I didn't know that you mainlanders paid almost as much as we do. Any of you guys come up to Hawaiian Homegrown at HB and introduce yourselves as we always looking to meet people.

Have you guys used sidestep previously and also does anyone have bad previous experiences with priceline.com hotel.com orbitz.com or expedia.com?
Thanks and i shall see you in LA

I completely agree, but you also have to remember that Southwest, Jetblue and several other "economy" airlines don't typically discount for layovers.

However larger airlines like AA, Continental, Delta, do offer significant savings. This is due mostly to the fact of the volume in air traffic these airlines have over economy lines.

For example, non-stop from BWI to SAN via American was $450 RT. However with a layover at DFW, I flew once for a hair under $300. That's a savings of over $150 and a killer workout running 49 gates in 7 minutes!

Hahaha.

Orlando to Ontario(sna) 228. on www.expedia.com.

You guys got to shop better.

INvEsToRoFMeRcY · 01-31-2004, 10:32 PM

we got tickets for $213 from ATL to LAX...Wanna know the secret? Go to delta website and look for Professional or college team discounts. If you have more than 10 people, you save! for us , it saved $44 each!

I bought my ticket for 231 from www.expedia.com a couple days ago. I'm flying from orlando to atlanta to orange county.

DemonicThunder · 02-01-2004, 10:13 PM

we paid $195 from JFK, NY to Long Beach, CA non stop on Jet Blue.....that was the cheapest i found and i litterly searched over 20 sites and airlines and called....i do it every time for my whole team

PunishersPat · 02-02-2004, 12:10 PM

our team paid 299 each from pittsburgh to lax non-stop both ways from us airways... i know there may have been some cheaper ones with layovers etc. but we rather be more assured that our stuff will get there layovers can cause major headaches with luggage!!!!!!!

but hopefully its better now adays!
