(Newbie) can sonmeone get fares lower than those advertised at ExpertFlyer?
I have recently started exploring cheaper travel, and I am confused about the fares advertised at Expertflyer and those available at booking sites like Kayak.
I am interested in flying one-way, business class, from NYC to BOM on 08/18/2017. My plans may change, so I am also mindful of cancellation penalties while I book my ticket.
Expert Flyer tells me that the lowest price is offered by KU under fare code C21DAPOW at USD 1551 in class "B"
Kayak and Vayama tell me that I can book flights 118 followed by 301 for $1451.22 ( $1451 fare + 0.22 tax ). What's going on?
Making things more confusing, a travel agent offered me Virgin Atlantic flight on same route for $1973, when I see that the lowest fare published by VS is way higher.
I'm certain I have missed a critical point here, if there is already a trhread on such anomaly please point me towards it.
Thanks!
