Expedia bargain fares..Are they??
I need 6 tickets from Atlanta to san diego...Expedia's bargain of $209 with 0-1 connections sounds to good to be true. Will I be traveling all day??? Have you tried their bargain fares???

It's just like Hotwire, where you cannot choose the carrier or time of travel. It's similar to Priceline, but in this case, you are offered the price rather than you having to put in a bid.
Personally, I would like to choose the carrier and time of day. There are often ways of finding a lower fare than this method.
For example, you can fly to LAX on AA for $214 on Tuesday, Wednesday or Saturday. Take Amtrak to San Diego.

Check around, you may be able to get it even cheaper on Hotwire or Priceline.
Also, you may be able to use a regular online ticket seller to get definitive times and airlines (and miles) with close to the same price.
You're almost there, but DO YOUR REASEARCH!
