Hello,

I am going to bid - Detroit (DTW) to Houston(IAH)

This is the first time I am bidding -

Currently the base price is showing $470 + taxes = $508 for that trip

I see winning bids by priceline for this segment ranging from $200 to $360

What is my best bet? How do I proceed to get a good time and satisfied price?

Any tips?

Thanks

Welcome to BetterBidding!

How do I proceed to get a good time...
When using PRICELINE to bid on airfare you can't control your departure or arrival times and you agree to up to one connection. Given these parameters, how much would you need to save off the base fare to make an opaque purchase worthwhile?

Hello,

Many thanks for your reply

Right now priceline is quoting me $406 price on a $508 ticket with $103 saving.

Is that good? Worth the purchase or will they send me an offer again?

Thanks,

I got a 64% saving on an American Airlines flight ... I am happy with the ticket they gave me for $406 (at a regular price of $700)

Thanks

Congratulations on your success!

Glad to see you received a nice deal on this ticket... i feel like we've been seeing more successful plane tickets lately so maybe this is a sign that higher flight costs have had an effect on filling seats on flights.

What are your dates of travel? How are the flight times and what are the layover cities and length?

Have a great trip.
