You don't face up to two connections unless you indicate that is fine with you. But I agree that there is usually little or no value to Priceline's airline ticket bidding product. The fact that people still ask about Priceline airline ticket bidding shows the value of their many years of advertising. Gotta hand 'em one for that although it's been years since Priceline advertised airfares.
