Farecompare is just plain bad.

On Farecompare I'm convinced they are just presenting totally random numbers that you can never find and book.
I agree. Farecompare is horrible. In addition to being ridiculously slow, the numbers are just "teaser" fares. They're not real. Also, you cannot book business class tickets; you can only book either first or economy! Talk about ridiculous. I tried fare compare a lot with a lot of exasperation, and I have given up on that website. Kayak all the way.
