Hi, I found a good rate for my flight, finally but it's with vayama.com. I've never heard of them & they have a disclaimer stating "Taxes and Fees include a non-refundable vayama service fee per passenger which will be billed separately on your credit card."

Does this give them the right to charge anything they want to my card after I book? Or do they have to tell you 1st. ??

If I go thru with this without feedback, I;ll let you all know the answer to this.

Nevermind. I just read that for the 5th time & it clicked. I've been staring at my computer too long. I'll let everyone know how the site is though.

Just an update if anyone ever uses them... I have booked my flight w/ Vayama.com & so far so good. They had the cheapest flight I could find at the best rate. Although, you place your order & they tell you it's not gauranteed for 72 hrs. That's terrible b/c you could miss out on many great offers while waiting to see if you've been confirmed at the said price. Thank God mine went through, but I was on eggshells. Also, there customer service line is good, they always answer. I'll let everyone know, after the flight if it was a good experience.

I booked 2 RT tickets from Orange County,CA (SNA) to Rome (FCO) form 11/17-11/27 w/ 2 stops each way for a total of $1364.40 (including taxes & fees). On United & Lufthansa. Not bad, considering what else is out there.

I got our tickets IAD - FCO - CAI, CAI - MUC - IAD with them. I actually did it on the phone, since we are a group larger than 6 and it went very well. There is a booking fee of $25. I particularly like their web site which has a few neat features. I found them through fare compare, one of my favorite Firefox add ons, and vayama found me a better price than the others - Orbitz et al.

on the vayama website, on their deals section, you can enter your point of departure and click anywhere, anytime, and either dream, or start planning, since it come up with the cheapest flights to all sorts of places.

There is a similar feature at www.kayak.com/buzz

I'm trying to figure out why 911 is in the thread title? Is this a terrorist request or something?

NoFly: 9/11 would maybe be something about sept 11 or terrorism

But just plain old 911 is the USA phone # for emergency services (Like 999 in the UK). Probably was used because the OP wanted a quick answer.
