Lately I have had nothing but poor results from discount websites. Here's my Orbitz experience: I ask for fares +/- 3 days. I click on the lowest fare. The fares and schedules come up. I choose a good fare. I click on it. I then get a message that the fare has increased significantly. It does not matter when I do this. On Travelocity the fares are typically higher than the corresponding fare from the airline website. On Kayak, I get that great calendar grid that shows the fares on different days. Surprise, the date I want to travel has the lowest fare. Other dates have significantly higher fares. I change the desired travel date by two days. Surprise, the newly chosen date has the lowest fare. The date I had a few minutes ago has a significantly higher fare. Somebody has some splainin to do.

It seems like it could be BS when I get emails that say "for a limited time only, book your room at 25% off!" and there is no coupon code to apply for that. This makes me think I'd get the same rate at any site for whichever hotels they're talking about.

Just go to your website and use it. Almost always directs you to a higher fare@:-)
