Airline Consolidators. Any recommendations?
I have received a quote from two different airline consolidators, "TravelBargains" in San Jose, California and "Integrity Travel" in Kalispel, Montana with a reduction of approximately 15% off in domestic travel from Atlanta to Jackson Hole. Am apprehensive, but tempted. Does anyone know anything about either of these companies? Does anyone have any recommendation on a reputable and reliable airline consolidator. Thanks.

Have you tried the consolidators site at travelocity.com? I haven't actually purchased from them, but I have checked prices and found them to be very good.

I have purchased airline tickets from Travelocity several times and have been very satisfied with their price and service.

I just purchased two tickets from YouPriceIt.com and was Extremely (with a capital "E") pleased. I bought tickets round trip from Ontario, CA to New Orleans for $85 each way (slightly under $100 including taxes and fees), and $150 each way (including taxes and fees) from Ontario, CA to Portland, ME. Both tickets are under 50% the best Travelocity published fares. Disadvantage: you can not choose your travel time, only date. I am flying at 7am. I found the customer service and prices at this site vastly superior to the more popular Priceline. They also give you frequent flier miles and seat assignments, and will give you a counteroffer, unlike Priceline.

The two consolidators you list sound more like local travel agents offering discounts than nationally know consolidators such as <BR>www.cheaptickets.com <BR>www.lowestfare.com <BR>the other recommendations were also good <BR> <BR>ALWAYS ALWAYS CHECK YOUR LOCAL NEWSPAPER SUNDAY TRAVEL SECTION FOR THOSE CONSOLIDATORS ADS- EASY WAY TO COMPARE FARES- SOME GIVE THEIR WEBSITES AS WELL. ALSO CHECK www.bestfares.com- check the newsdesk etc. Most travel agents worth their salt can give you 20$ off of TWA flights- so to me, l5% is nothing! Keep looking. Make sure they are licensed etc.
