Cheapoair.com
 
Is this a legit website....I found a great airfare for Austin to ft. lauderdale, but want to make sure this website is good to go? Anyone used it? thanks!

I believe that it's legit. I've many friends who're satisfied with their services. I've found many good reviews too...

I don't see any reason why you should squander this chance:)

NO! Dont go to cheapoair. They have a bait and switch. They offer you lowest price for your travel and when you try to book it, it will say that they are unable to confirm this flight, then you pick available and same thing until you get to the most expensive one. I tried to book on their website and I along with others have had the same problems. If you don't believe me, then go ahead and try getting a super deal....

Forget about the "legit" question and check the airline site before purchasing through a third party.

I just compared the exact same flights on AA in NOV, TPA-SFO.

www.aa.com came back with the following:

$246 fare + 41.60 Taxes and fees = $287.60

www.cheapoair.com came back with:

$218.84 fare + 93.75 taxes and fees = $312.59

SAME EXACT FLIGHTS.
