Actually, FCTSTY, a consolidator might not be the best bet for LHR Wannabee to find a last-minute airfare deal.

According to: Airline Ticket Consolidators and Bucket Shops FAQ
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">
Much of the confusion about airfares comes from the fact that there are completely different systems of airfares for domestic flights within any given country and for international flights.......................................
These domestic USA consolidator deals -- amounting basically to waivers of advance-purchase requirements -- change often, and are structured and marketed to make sure that these tickets are not usable by last-minute business travelers.</font>
