Have you checked out Farecast.com?
gsiener's avatar
It does predictions on prices of future flights, based on previous data.

have you played the game Deflexion?

What's up Graham??! how the hell are you? When are you coming back out west -- we're itching to have another Game Day. But it's not the same without you
gsiener's avatar
Nigel - you should post that as a new question
nigel's avatar
Ben/Andrew - do you mind if this question (and others) get used as social chatting?
nigel's avatar
who monitors this?
ben's avatar
well, this a problem we've just come across--
nigel's avatar
what if I'm some random schlub who wants to learn about cheap airfare. I don't want to see the non-sexual love affair with graham and nigel
ben's avatar
for now, a new question would be best-- but we're going to figure out a better solution
nigel's avatar
okay maybe it's an unrequited love affair
ben's avatar
like "enter chatty mode" or something
gsiener's avatar
You said you loved me!

Deflexion is now called Khet.

it's also worth practicing... even when you don't need to go somewhere... test different avenues.. and utlimately, it's usually better to buy tickets on the airline's website and not the search engine's.... cause then you're on the airline's terms and not the search engine's and it's also probably a little cheaper because most charge a 5-10 dollar fee for helping you find the flight.

I agree - Kayak is amazing. It shows you the cheapest options AND presents you with the direct links to book the ticket. It's a good idea to check out Hotwire if it's last minute but there are limitations.

kayak is the bomb

sidestep is good
