are flights with an overnight layover used?

[rst]

I want to bid on a flight from Philadelphia to Provo, Turks and Caicos. In checking various flight schedules, I notice that one airline lists a flight that leaves about 10Pm and goes to Charlotte, where the connecting flight is 10AM (the next day)! Would priceline use such a flight?

Priceline lists their maximum layover times on their site somewhere (or you could email them). By memory, I think that Priceline would not use such a flight, but Hotwire might. Hotwire wrote in an email that layovers on international flights can be up to 18 hours. But best to find out from Priceline directly.

Thanks for the reply. How can I contact Priceline? I don't see anything on their website for a contact.

Click on the Help link at the top right. Go through their database and see if they answer your question. If not, they have a way for you to email them.
