When you're flying where do you go for the best ticket prices? I've never had to find my own tickets before.
Trying to book my trip to Texas for the Browns game.

Why you going to the airport? Flying somewhere?

I saw your luggage. Then when I noticed the airline ticket, I put two and two together.

Be sure to answer everyone that says "Have a nice flight" with "You too".

The only advice I can give you is make sure you mess around with different airports for arrival and departure. I say this because every time I've looked it is about $100 cheaper to fly into Akron Canton from here rather than Hopkins.
Also make sure you go visit whatever airlines direct site before you book through Priceline, orbitz, etc. The airlines pay a fee and sometimes you can get the price a little cheaper. I found this out when cashing in my bank reward points for a flight. In order to use the rewards I had to book directly with the airline and it was like $40 cheaper to book with the airline.
Besides that, I give it 3:1 odds you get patted down and wanded in security because they think you're a skinhead.

Diz, that crap about not smoking in the airplane bathrooms is BS. You can do it, I smoke in them all the time.

There is actually a pretty standard pattern on airfare prices. Our travel guys have it down, I'll have to see if I can get it out of them, but basically there is a certain timeframe (like six weeks for example) where the rates will most often be the lowest. It goes up and down like a wave though. Tried telling the gf's parents that before booking tix for 20 to Ireland but they didn't listen and booked the first day they were available. Sure enough a few months later they were $300 less per person and I think they still went lower.

Airline tickets will surely raise their prices now that holidays are fast approaching.
