[lug] OT: Travel Help

[Michael Deck]

I've never had good results from Expedia or Travelocity. Maybe it's just 
me. I find that Orbitz gives a good rank-order for the airlines, but you 
almost always get lower prices if you then go to the airlines directly. 
Kayak (www.kayak.com) is new, and seems to get the fares a bit closer to 
the airlines' direct offers. Be aware that buying tickets directly from 
these sites can cost you a service charge, whereas buying direct from the 
airlines usually doesn't.
