Airline Tickets

Has anyone got any recommendations for what site to use for flight tickets?

Google brings up a million of them and the ones I've tried all redirect to other sites and it's a mess.

Skyscanner is pretty good.

Just used Opodo, got some prices :-)

First time using it though. However, the booking reference they gave me could then also be used on the proper airlines website :-)

Other than that, try using the BA website, their prices are relatively good and the interface is pretty useful for finding a date/ticket you want :-)

I agree, sometimes its worth checking on the actual airlines website, also http://www.farecompare.com/ is ment to be quite good but ive not used them myself yet.

I usually use Skyscanner and Expedia.

Kayak is useful.

I tend to use Skyscanner but sometimes places like Jet2 have discounts for booking direct.

I use Expedia mainly. Just booked my latest trip to Venice for just over £500 (2 Adults 3 nights).

Skyscanner
Expedia

or on the airline's web sites themselves as they sometimes have special offers.
What flights are you looking for in particular?

I used purely Kayak travelling around the world for the last 6 months. I did try SkyScanner and Expedia but Kayak always gave the best prices.

Booked through Expedia, Skyscanner and direct through airline.

Whichever is the cheapest really and check for cashback sites too for extra bonus money back.

Thanks for the advice, will do some comparisons of prices now

ITA matrix (searches airline websites as well) kayak and skyscanner. All have different benefits and cons, such as kayak and ITA doing open jaw tickets and skyscanner being much better for "I feel like going on holiday next weekend, any cheap flights to somewhere interesting?".
