thereuare Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 Welcome to BetterBidding!What is the best rate you're currently seeing for this route?

london2USA Posted November 14, 2013 Author Report Posted November 14, 2013 Current normal price with AirFrance and DeltaAir is showing $820.20 ( 1 connection). I am looking for something around $500 ( 40% discount with Name the Price is $492.12)
thereuare Posted November 14, 2013 Report Posted November 14, 2013 You can have an almost unlimited number of re-bids when bidding on airfare, as per this Priceline Airfare Re-Bidding thread (in particular see the 2nd post)So you can start at a low figure like $350 and increase by $5-$25 per re-bid zone, larger increments at the lower bid amounts and lower increments at the higher bid amounts, until you reach your maximum of $500/tix.Does that make sense?Any questions about re-bidding feel free to ask.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Good luck and let us know how it goes.

london2USA Posted November 23, 2013 Author Report Posted November 23, 2013 I got this reply from Price line by email"At this time, our system only allows customers to use our Name Your OwnPrice service if they have a card with a U.S. billing address for ourAir product."
