What is 1 800 FlyEurope.com?
 
What airlines do they fly? Or do you just find out once you've ordered the itinerary? How do you know if the flights are reasonable (layovers, number of stops, etc)?

They are a consilidator and no, you don't find out who it is 'til you book.

That said, if you request a flight from DFW-FRA and it leaves at the same time that AA or LH flies (the only daily departures out of DFW to FRA) then you can guess who it is.

I used them once to fly to Paris on American Airlines. I was able to figure out it was American from the flight schedule, so I did know what I would be getting before I booked. Also, I was able to get frequent flyer miles for the flights.

Thanks Jame for that comment.

I check a price from Miami to Barcelona round trip. On Kayak, it was $889.00 with Iberia. On www.flyeurope.com, it was $798.89 plus $50 in taxes or $849.59, or a savings of $40, unless there are more taxes. It did say final price.

This is just me, but for less than 5% savings, I would probably book directly with the airline. I would just be more comfortable with doing the transaction that way.
