Has anyone had luck with "www.economytravel.com"?
 
I was wondering how reliable this site is for their airline tickets...they are the least expensive I've found, but should I be worried?

Hey Brian...I thought I would check out this website as well since you mentioned it. <BR> <BR>I'm with brian....is this site trustworthy? I found the cheapest tickets thus far on this site, but I want to know what success people have had with it...or not...

There was an thread posted a few weeks ago on this very company but it is buried so deep I couldn't retrieve it. <BR>I recently purchased tickets (5) of them from economytravel. I had been looking for a particular flight for three months and I also found them to be the cheapest. Because of the # of tickets I needed,the flight status wanted (non-stop), and I time of travel (August) there was no way I could pass up their price. I first researched their website for prices and then called them directly and spoke to one of their representatives. I quoted the price I found on the site but the representative said it was even cheaper (by $5 per ticket). I had the tickets held for me,(which they will do for no more than 24 hours). I purchased the tickets (paper) with a credit card and they arrived in three days via Fed Ex from Atlanta. They do have a stiff cancellation policy, their own plus the carrier's fee for any changes or refunds. For seat assignment you need to call the carrier directly. My experience was very good and I would recommend them. Good Luck and happy traveling!
