cheap airfare?
 
Anyone know the best travel agent or website to get good deals on airfare from tampa to cairo?

some examples for october roundtrip flights:
expedia.com-1301.00
travelocity.com-1476.00
cheaptickets.com-1477.00
orbitz.com-1161.00
lufthansa.com-1745.00
alitalia.com-1551.00
orbitz has the best price, but you don't always get the orbitz website price when you go to book.

I would recommend flying out of Miami if possible. I just bought my tickets and paid $760 at cheaptickets.com for my trip in December.

I went to an airline aggregator site, which lead me to a consolidator web site and got $900.00 RT from Los Angeles to Cairo for September (on KLM) .

I found a site called www.kayak.com
It searches about 100 sites and then takes you right the the sight with the cheap airfare.

Hi Shashee,

Last March ('04) my husband and I didnt want to spend $1200 each from SFO to Cairo so this is what we did.

Purchased tickets from SFO to Italy (Milan) for $480 each.
Used Delta miles from Milan to Cairo (30000 miles I think) for both of us.

So we flew from SFO to Cairo for $48o each. :)
We lucked out for sure... keep trying different ideas like that, they just might work out!
