Pros: None Cons: All
My first excursion on priceline.com was not a good one. As a result, I will not use this service again and would not recommend ordering airline tickets from this outfit.
I was interested in purchasing one ticket from San Francisco to Las...

Pros: save money Cons: inconvenient times
I have used priceline.com twice. The first time I used priceline I was very happy with their service. I didn't like the fact that you couldn't choose the times of your flights and couldn't cancel the flight. However I named my own price and it was...

Pros: Good priced Cons: Poor customer service
I am writing to say that Priceline may be able to get you cheap tickets, but when they mess up they really mess up!!
I ordered round trip airline tickets that I requested to be e-ticketed. I received a very good price, however I had to take 5...

Pros: lower fares Cons: Dear God, the timing!!!
Here goes. I purchased tickets from New Orleans to Seattle, round trip for 50 dollars less at priceline than anywhere else. Little did I know I would loose my hair, patience, sense of humor and luggage when purchasing my ticket. This was my first and...

Pros: Great Prices Cons: Not being able to change reservations after they've been booked
I decided to try Priceline.com when faced with the opportunity to fly from Providence to Kansas to visit an old friend of mine
I had already called several different airlines and was having a problem because I was only booking 6 days in...

Pros: Decent prices for airfare Cons: No changes allowed, ever
I used Priceline to purchase airline tickets for a trip I was planning to make with friends. 72 hours after placing my order, my friend had a tragedy in the family and our trip was cancelled.
The entire saga of requesting a refund and being...

Pros: as stated Cons: as stated
I am a person who question a lot of things, if not all of them. I freak out when I see $49.90 charged on my credit card and I just can't remember why (I end up calling the company and hearing "maam, your transaction was made last night at...

Pros: Great discount fares Cons: no flexiblity or choice
I used Priceline for the first time this past summer at the recommendation of a friend. I was searching online for the cheapest airfare for a cross country flight East. The cheapest rate I had found was for $505 and I really felt I could do better so,...

Pros: decent prices, easy access Cons: need patience, no pets allowed
We've all seen the commercials with William Shatner talking his way badly through some karaoke song and showboating for PRICELINE.com...very amusing! What's even funnier is that the man has never USED the service, he just owns stock in it...hmmmmm....

Pros: $40/night in an L.A. landmark hotel Cons: none - it worked like a charm
I wrote a previous favorable epinion on Priceline, regarding success in getting inexpensive lodging in Portland, OR. This was back in October '99. Just last week, I had the need for two hotel rooms in downtown L.A. on short notice due to a sudden...

Pros: Saving something is better than nothing Cons: "Deals" give you a not-so-fresh feeling, no frequent flyer miles, red eye departures
What's the deal with Priceline? For months people have been telling my "You gotta use Priceline for your tickets! It's the best deal around." Well, I finally got myself to get online and get some tickets. To get to the point, I was pretty...

Pros: Cheap, easy to use, only brand name airlines/hotels/rental cars, e-ticketing Cons: Airline taxes are not included in bid and can cause sticker shock later if you bid too high at the start
Priceline.Com is a great service. I've used it to buy airfare, rooms, and rental cars.
The concept is simple. Name your price, wait an hour, and see if you got what you bid for.
There are some misconceptions about the service and...

Pros: possibly save money Cons: no control, no customer service
I have used priceline 4 times - 3 for airlines and once for hotels. The airline fares are reasonable - slightly less than you could get directly - BUT you don't have a whole lot of input into flight times - Also, the airlines designate you as a...

Pros: Sometimes incredible price breaks Cons: ...if you can accept the conditions
I've read a number of negative reviews here about Priceline. I have used Priceline several times. I never expect to get first class service. Priceline exists so folks who might be trying to save money get a chance to get where they want to go for a...
