Pros: reasonable flights Cons: non-transferable, non-refundable, do not give you OFFERS
My brother and I were preparing to go to New York City for spring break in April. My mother had been working up there for a few months. It was supposed to be a great trip, a time for us all to bond. But flight prices are so high around that time of...

Pros: Easy to navigate and good customer service Cons: Sometimes more expensive than airlines if booking well in advance
I thought Pricline was going to be this great way to lowball any airline price. I was severly disappointed.
Priceline is easy to use. You just put in your city of origin and destination and a few options to better your chances. The whole process...

Pros: convenient, customer service is outstanding, cheap tickets appeal to everyone, no? Cons: sometimes takes longer than their promised hour to get you an answer.
I live in Portland, Oregon, but most of my friends and all of my family live on the east coast. A cross country flight can cost as much as $1900 full fare and a low fare is usually around $400. These costs would prohibit most of my friends and family...

Pros: Cost Cons: Lack of flexiblity
I am constantly amazed out how ignorant people can be. And after reading some of the reviews on Priceline, I am even more amazed. People complain because Priceline does exactly what they say they are going to do, which is offer a discount service at a...

Pros: You can get cheap tickets. Hopefully they work out for you Cons: You don't get to pick the times and there are no refunds or switches.
Let me tell you the experience that I had using Priceline.com. The horror story. Now, it may work out for some people. I have a friend in Chicago, who got great tickets for the times he hoped for, but that was all by chance, I assure you. Here's the...

Pros: very cheap tickets Cons: can only name the dates to fly, not times
Having flown priceline several times, it has become quite clear that this is the best place for the best price in airline online ticketing. No airline has come close to beating their price. They generally average $100 to $125 cheaper than any other...

Pros: free, reputable Cons: requires a commitment to their service, somewhat ineffective
I've attempted to use Priceline on at least 2 different occasions. Naturally, they were my first choice for online ticketing since it's hard to go anywhere without hearing or seeing an ad regarding their "wonderful, free service". It seemed...

Pros: Great Prices Cons: Can't choose time of flights
I had heard from a friend that I should look into getting airline tickets on Priceline.com. I explored the site, which is very user friendly, and found it quite interesting. I was very hesitant about purchasing and making my reservations online, but went...

Pros: You can purchase online! Cons: You have no recourse if there is a mistake!
I purchased 3 round trip airline tickets from priceline.com for Thanksgiving travel this year. They were for my husband, daughter and myself to spend Thanksgiving with my sister in Portland, Oregon. We were to leave the day before and return the Monday...

Pros: Save Big Money, Easy Cons: Separating your groceries
I'm having a great time with priceline.com for grocery shopping! I've only used it four times so far, but I love it! Once you get the hang of it, your "pre-shopping - shopping", on-line goes quickly. The trick is to always pick as many brands...

Pros: You can save lots of money Cons: You may not get the price you want first try
Priceline deals in lots of things, airfare, hotel reservations and even groceries now. The chance that you will pay less with priceline is very good. You name your price and they get back to you within an hour for the travel accommodations and within a...

Pros: can get a good price, fast Cons: gotta know what you are doing to use it!
I recently used priceline for the first time, and I learned alot about it which is useful to share.
I spent a couple of days shopping around for a ticket to Florida for Christmas (about 5 days, weekend stay), and the lowest price I was able to...

Pros: The Simplicity and Availability Cons: Not any to be found
Priceline.com is a fun and easy way to make any type of travel reservations, or bid on anything from groceries to a new car. They offer the availability to name your own price on all kinds of things. I was really amazed with the volume of service their...

Pros: Cheaper than a train or car Cons: You have to be flexible
Priceline the much advertised site where "you name your own price" on everything from groceries to plane tickets is to say the least an interesting site.
Priceline is excellent source of tickets if you are flexible in your travel...

Pros: Seems to not be based on honest review of availability Cons: Now that the customer base is established, quality changes.
Good service at our price, this is a good deal. Just when I have decided to be the local advertisement for Priceline.com., A BIG red flag pops up on my e-mail screen. We are unable to find an airline to pick up your requested tickets, at your price. But...
