travel websites- onetravel.com
Does anyone have any experience with onetravel.com? Sidestep directed me to their site where they are offering a price for a specific roundtrip between Charlotte, NC and St. Thomas that is $200 below any other site. They will only say that the flight is on a "label carrier", but by the flight times and the fact that it is nonstop I know that it is the US Air flight that I want. Onetravel.com gets 7 terrible reviews on epinions but the reviewers' problems don't seem to apply here. Thanks!

Don't believe the price until you actually see the confirmation screen.
I've bought from them before and got my tickets and all that. It's been a couple of years though. More recently, I saw prices that were well under everyone else's. Go through the whole process, keying in name, address and cc # to find it telling me that those tickets aren't available. It then raised the prices slightly. Did this a bunch of times until my fingers were tired and the prices were as high or higher than the competitive booking sites. 3 days later, the original routes and prices that caught my eye were still appearing.
Could have just been the route that I wanted, but I've heard the same sort of thing from others.

I had a similar experience to what Clifton describes. It was extremely frustrating- I would go through the entire process, and poof- the fare is gone. Over and over and over. If you can actually book it though, good for you.
