hi, <BR> <BR>i am thinking of using one of airline consolidator affiliates to purchase our tickets to london. <BR> <BR>has anyone had any problems with them. they seem to have the lowest round trip rates. i found tickets for 5 people at around $412 roundtrip. <BR> <BR>i know you can sometimes find specials cheaper out of jfk, newark and others, but we are leaving from nc out of charlotte and dont want to pay connector fligts. <BR> <BR>any help or advise? <BR> <BR>sandy c <BR>

when are you travelling? that is a good fare if it over the summer. I have not found anything that low. have not heard of them.what is their website?

You might want to try asking this question on www.eurotrip.com - - on the "cheap flights forum" - - they know everything over there about consolidators and such. Especially Don - - a god among bargain hunters -- and scam-sniffers, perhaps. <BR> <BR>Best wishes, <BR> <BR>Rex <BR> <BR>

I've been using a consolidator (Fare Deals) for years. Sometimes I find better prices on my own, but usually not. I've always gotten excellent service from them and never had a problem. But every business is different. If you're concerned, ask them for references.

Only problem with consolidators are their cxl /changes fees-which are higher than regular airlines.... <BR>Nuff said--YES,use them- they use major scheduled Good airlines---never had problem with them...fare sounds GREAT!! <BR>Which consolidator was it?
