Yes, actually, we just accepted a counteroffer bid. It's not a steal but it's still a great price, I think! We got a 7am flight from La Guardia to Orlando Intl (MCO) for tomorrow morning, and a 10:45am flight on Sunday back (MCO to LGA) both are non-stop which makes us really really happy! They were $191 each; a counterbid we got from bidding $150 (with tax) Thank you so much for your help, thereuare!

I've started at $60 (last week) and moved up to around 120. Those offers came up pretty frequently today (bidding between 75-120), sometimes with higher counteroffers (around 300-350). *Edit: these prices were before taxes ($50); so starting bid was actually $110, not 60 -The flights to MCO and Tampa seem to be getting the lowest counterbids ($193-230 with tax) -The flights to Jacksonville and Gainesville seem to be highest counterbids ($350 with tax)

Yes, thank you so much for the clarifications. What would a more reasonable bid be? I've been getting the message that while my original bid won't be accepted, here are some other deals: $215 If you can arrive at/return from Orlando Intl Airport, FL (MCO) and return on Sunday, March 17 we can get you tickets for $215 per ticket including taxes and fees. $230 If you can depart from/return to Newark Liberty Intl Airport, NJ (EWR) and Orlando Intl Airport, FL (MCO) we can get you tickets for $230 per ticket including taxes and fees. (and higher prices I can't afford)

Hello, Yes I've read through quite a few posts and was wondering if anyone could answer these specific questions. Thanks in advance!

Hello, I'm new to Priceline bidding but really hoping I can get a winning bid asap. I'm planning a last minute trip from NYC to Gainesville, FL for next week (3/13 to 3/16 - Wed to Sat). I'd really like to keep the travel dates set (flexible with time of day, since there is an 80% chance both will be morning flights) but I'm willing to play around with several airlines-- I can leave from LGA or JFK but can arrive at GNV, JAX or MCO, or if really necessary, an airport in Tampa (TPA). I've been seeing winning bids come up from $122-200, and I'd really like to keep the price below $150 to make it worth it. Is this a plausible win, if I use the rebidding system? Retail prices are about $350-450 currently. Also: I'm a bit confused about the rebidding. If I put NYC instead of a specific airport as my start point, does that count as a new bid, even if I limit it to JFK/LGA? and if I use Newark or EWR as my starting point and use only JFK and LGA, is that a new bid as well? Thank you in advance!
