Hotwire.com For Plane Tickets To Australia?

Hello.

Does anyone have experience that they are willing to share with buying a plane ticket for travel between the United States and Australia through Hotwire.com?

I am reachable at [email protected]

Thanks.

I think I'd have a problem buying a ticket to Australia via Hotmail or Priceline. I really like to know all the details.

But if you do go through with this let us know when you return how well it went.

Hi Norman,

I bought a Hotwire ticket to Melbourne AU. this year with no problems. I purchased through Hotwire because it was the cheapest and I really looked around! United was the airline. You need to remember you won't know the itinerary till after the actual purchase, but I lucked out & it was a very straight flight. Also I could not apply those miles to my united miles because I purchased through a discounted site.

Today I received an e-mail from United with really good fares through Dec. 5th 2003 - you need to purchase by Sept. 25th. I only wish I had more vacation time because I'd be booking if I could, damn!

Good luck, E

Hi, ecat!
May we know the details of United's special deal? Quite a few people on this site like to keep abreast of special deals, but often the cheap fares are not widely publicised. Your info might help someone a lot! Thanks.
