Fare Tracker

I am headed to Cancun Christmas week. Fares are high. I would like to track changes. Travelocity's Fare Tracker doesn't do dates, just city pairs so I am getting today's cheap prices not tracking changes in the Christmas New Year's high prices.

Am hoping to catch a break. Right now my lowest is over $700. I tried all the usual sources but if anyone has a great cheap ticket site, let me know.

Too good to be true??? or a Legit site???

The thread at http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/showt...ferrerid=28043 discusses a site http://loc.besttix.net as a source of cheap tickets. It displays poorly. On it I could save $200 per ticket. In that thread, I asked whether it was a legit site. Since some of you might not see that thread, i thought I'd ask the question here as well.

However, if you have comments on http://loc.besttix.net, it would be best to leave them in http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/showt...ferrerid=28043.

Comments will be appreciated.

Where do I get that price? For me the SDF-CUN price Christmas week was $790.

I saw it on Clark Howard's website. That price is from Atlanta, not SDF. I have no idea the best way to get from SDF to ATL but I would hope it would be less than the difference between $790 and $308. Note, Clark's fares usually do not include junk fees.

When I have booked fares found on his website, I just call the airline and give them the Code. They can tell you if there is any restriction.

Good Luck!
