Has ANYONE here managed to succesfully EVER purchase a ticket through this shit?

EDIT: If anyone can find me a cheap ticket from Vancouver, BC to Seoul I'll sing your praises.

1. Last time I used one of those was back in '04.

and it worked out okay. But it's been a while since then, they could have all gotten sucky in the interim.

2. Yes ...

Everytime I flew to Germany between 2000 and 2004 I always found a ticket between $450-$500 USD compared to the $2000.00 the airlines wanted me to shell over.

3. I've bought tickets through Orbitz and Expedia with no problem and got good deals.

Other times I haven't found very good deals- I think it kinda depends on when and where you're going, sometimes there just aren't any good sales.
