Is name your own price for flights still an option or the rules changed?

"Your dates above overlap the dates of your previous Priceline Airline tickets thread from LAX --> OTP... please post a follow-up in that thread with whatever you decide to do for those tickets (even if your decision was to cancel the trip, book direct, etc); then reply here and we will comment on your post above." Your answer depends on this matter? I am not allowed to bid the tickets for my kids going LAX to OTP, and tickets for my parents going LAX to OGG because are in the same time??????? Regarding the tickets to Maui, I won the bid this morning from the first try! I'm so happy getting the cheapest price!!!!

I bought these tickets for my sons. Since any of my bids were not accepted, i bought directly from Price.line the cheapest tickets LAX-OTP via Moscow.

I need advices to bid on 2 tickets from LAX to OGG on 07.17.2015 to 07.25.2015. When ai the best time to start bidding? Now is too early? What day of the week is the best to bid on airfare?

Yes, I am aware of re-bidding. I start with 800$ and I increased 5 times to 1200$/ticket. Thank you, Bettyluna

Is it possible to bid for renting a car in Bucharest (OTP)?? I looked also for regular prices on car rentals and the taxes and fees show 0 Euro. Is this correct or I should expect to be charged more at pick-up? Bettyluna

I plan to travel to Bucharest from Los Angeles between 06.25.2015 to 07.18.2015, 2 tickets. The cheapest tickets are with Aeroflot at 1030$/pers (not an option since we'll need a visa). All other tickets are over 1300$/pers. I tried bidding yesterday but not successful even with 1200$/ticket. I would be happy to get those tickets for 1100$/person. Is too early to try bidding on this airfair? When is the best moment to bid? Do you think the price will go down? Thank you for answering, Bettyluna
