I tried to find a hotwire RT price for SAN to LIT and all I got back were retail suggestions. I've only used Hotwire for hotels before and haven't had that happen before. Is this normal? Does it mean there is no discounted price available?

Thanks.

Sorry it's taken me a bit to get back to this...

I'm travelling 6/22/07 - 6/25/07 SAN to LIT. When I put this flight information in on Hotwire, I get the response: 54 retail flights available starting at $428. There is no offer of a "closed information" fare.

Thanks.

Hotwire does not have the best prices for all flights.

There are overnight flights on AA for $338 round-trip including taxes or normal flights on Frontier or Continental for $390 for your dates. Although these may seem high, you don't really have many alternate airports to try.
