    Airline Ticket Purchase Help

    I have a friend who needs to leave, BDL (Hartford) to go to ONT (Ontario, CALIFORNIA) on the 23rd of August.


    Anyone got any tips for him to get some tickets under $200? One-way.

      Hitchhike.

      That or pick a different airport.

      $230 is about as good as it gets.

          Does the Greyhound Bus go that way? If it does im sure that would be cheaper. But it would take a long time to get to the destination.

              I was looking for him, to bad nothing that early... I guess since its not within 14 days advance purchase. Shit on the 31st and 1st of september is like $104 total for the trip.

                  Probably get a standby ticket for fairly cheap, but that sucks balls.

                                      Sorry, I tried everything, including a few dirty tricks from a previous lifetime. I couldn't get anything for less than $290

                                          Try bookingbuddy.com, it makes it easier to compare prices.

                                          When I was to Orlando 2 weeks ago, with my kids and my wife, we booked our hotel at Travelocity, airline tickets at Priceline (Name your own price), and a rental car at Orbitz.

                                          For the hotel, airfare, and a rental car, I think it came out to like $187 per person.

                                              Is it one way or round trip?

                                                  one way, ontario is about 10-15min from our apartment, so its better for ONT than LAX (which is like 2 hours then needs a ride)

                                                      I just bought him a ticket, cut his travel time down from 15 hours or something like that, LOL.
