I found a great website called Yapta. You can enter in travel dates and flight info and when the price comes down to what you want to pay you are notified. Yapta just saved me 200.00!

You might also try kayak.com? You can setup a "Buzz" to alert you to a lower price level.
The site allows for you to choose arrival and departure times and take a look at individual airline prices.

Bill, I got Kayak on my puter daily, pretty cool to see the patterns of air fare change again and again.

Bill, tx for the kayak website. That also has the possibility of finding fares to/from Europe.

Annie, Is there a special area on the web site to ask to be notified? Thanks

Bill, sure is, I just have the feeling I am going to hit the "buy now" button when I see a really great rate! :-)

Debbie
I used the "Buzz" for my trip next week and found Las Vegas, to Curacao for $559! Can't complain about that!

Ann, I received notice from Yapta that our airfare dropped substantially (in my eyes, at least!) for our upcoming trip to Bonaire. I contacted the airline and it appears they are going to issue a full refund for the price difference back to my credit card....not just a voucher for part of the price as Yapta thought might happen.

I have re-entered the lowered rate and will have Yapta track that rate and changes for me now.

I sent them a nice note and they responded and asked if a journalist could contact me...he's writing an article for a German business magazine on websites that can save people money and Yapta is one of the companies he is writing about.

I had explained to him that you had posted Yapta's name on BT a while back and that lots of us have read the posting and have been utilizing Yapta's service.

Thanks so much for letting us know about Yapta, Annie!! See you in May 2008. Ayo. Carole
