Priceline
 
Has anyone baught tickets to italy or anywhere in europe on priceline? I mean using the name your own price method. I booked a 309 a night room in NYC at 4 star for 140$ so I was excited to try airfare. Any success stories???

Success stories with airfare are much rarer than with hotels, especially nowadays. When you bid with Priceline, you run the risk of getting horrible schedules that you would never choose, and the savings lately are minimal.

That sucks LOl. I need to get back to florence next month for minimal costs. Right now the best I can find from Rochester, NY area is $700+.

Try flying to the cheapest possible place in Western Europe and then a low cost airline to Florence !

Or a low-cost airline to Pisa (easy to get to Florence by bus or train), or Rome (easy transfer by train), or Bologna (easy by train).

Well I am still looking. If anyone knows of any good sites please let me know. I really like the flexible fare searches. It's a shame Travelocity doesnt offer them for international fares anymore. Ciaooo

You can get the same Travelocity flexible fare searches from Zuji:
