flight + hotel packages

[sydmax]

Has anyone ever used the priceline flight + hotel option? This is not a bidding feature, just one of their good deals. The only flight information that is given is something about a ''priceline partner airline", with flight times "anytime between 6 am and 11 pm". The prices are amazing; airfare and hotel for 2 people for less than 1 plane ticket thru the airline sites. Just wondering about priceline's ''partner airlines'.

Any help would be appreciated.

It should be on a major carrier (or one of their 'subsidiaries'... like "American Eagle's" connection with "American Airlines", etc)

Exactly what route are you looking at?

Looking for Des Moines to Washington DC, and most of the airlines and discount sites (Orbitz, etc.) are quoting around $475 just for one ticket. Priceline quoted (without very many details) as low as $248 per person for 2 tickets and hotel. I like priceline, but this sounds risky.

What would be the dates/length of your trip?

Does it indicate which airport you'd be flying into?

It doesn't mention which airport.

We're looking to stay maybe 2 nights, sometime in November.

My son wants to look at a couple of schools in the DC area, so we're not locked in as to days/dates.

Thanks.

I was trying to replicate your search.. but need the dates and route in order to do so.

You should check out flights to BWI airport, you can catch a train to DC. Also, Southwest has flights from Omaha to BWI if you are willing to drive a bit.
