My question is will PriceLine make sure you
get miles credited to your frequent flyer
program? I have NOT used them, but twice
when I used regular travel agents for airline
tickets I had to call the airlines back to
get my miles. Both cases involved UA who said "Oh, your agent never gave us the frequent flyer account number."

Also thinking that consolidators don't credit
frequent flyer miles since these would be special fare tickets. If someone would clarify this... greatly appreciated.

Something like Priceline might work for you
Jaws43 if you need a decently priced ticket.
I would want to make sure I get the miles
(Unless I didn't need them.)

Never used something like Priceline like
I said. Wondering if this is the same
company that Captain Kirk advertises with his
annoying "This is going to be big, really
big!" whiney voice! CATMAN
