thereuare Posted March 11, 2013 Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 You can certainly try as we have seen some recent airfare winning bids with VERY deep discounts, but generally speaking the savings on airfare are not in the 50% area which is what you're seeking above.Do you have firm dates in mind that you're ready to start bidding now?Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.
