Priceline Express Deals Air
Well, as I noted sometime ago, air bidding is gone.
However, I saw this commercial on tv. I hear a similar issue for rental express deals (only on app).

I haven't found any inventory yet and would appreciate if people share where they find search result responses of actual air express deals. It is also curious to see how opaque the deals are or if they provide some flight info (departure time window or stop detail).
Edit: Well, that wasn't too hard. As I have said in other FT threads on bidding (https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/online-travel-booking-bidding-agencies/1170662-bidding-air-tickets-priceline.html), I like routes with very focused air service like Hawaii.
I just got a result on the app for August 9 to 16 for LAX to OGG. I got a result for $481 with lowest normal at around $602. The info gives you details about whether it is a red-eye (common for Hawaii return) and an indication of up to 1 connection of up to 3 hours. Possible, but I think unlikely on this route.
The departure time window wasn't bad indication either morning/afternoon or afternoon/evening.
The airlines domestically are the big 3 plus Sun Country, Hawaiian or VX.
One more edit: Express air is on the website both mobile and desktop.
