bineplei Posted April 13, 2013 Report Posted April 13, 2013 Hi,I've been trying to bid on a ticket from Los Angeles to Berlin. Flexible travel dates leaving around June 14th and returning June 30th, +/- a few days.Retail prices are around $1400. I had tried bidding up to $980 but no luck. What's a realistic discount for international flights? I would like to stay under $1000. Thanks.
Romelle Posted April 13, 2013 Report Posted April 13, 2013 There isn't really any predictable discount, but in peak tourist time it tends to be much slimmer.While you are working on it, you might consider setting a "fare alert" at a few of these sites:KayakFareCompareSouthwestYaptaTripAdvisorTravelocityExpediaOrbitzThere are links to some of these on the Support Page (see the menu bar up above).Sales do happen. Sometimes they don't last very long. If you get an alert for a good sale, be prepared to act immediately.And there really isn't any predictable time when sales happen, but for international travel there seems to be a slight tendency for about 2 months out. Right about now in your case. Romelle
