Pros: Price, price, price
Cons: Can be inflexible
I just booked flight reservations on Priceline for my family's trip from Manchester, NH to Orlando, FL. Looking on Expedia, the lowest price for the dates I wanted to travel was $200 per ticket. I bid $145 for tickets, and was successful!

Pros: Great value for your money; doesn't have the issues the airline product has; can select hotel star level
Cons: You don't know where you're staying
Many users have talked about Priceline.com on this site, but most reviews have focused on the airline product. Even though people first think "plane tickets" when referring to Priceline, they need to switch their neurons to also think...

Pros: GREAT FOR GROCERIES
Cons: airline service is somewhat sketchy
Priceline.com is one of the BEST services available on the net.
My personal favorite is priceline groceries. Although it takes a while to bid on each item and they don’t always have your item it is GREAT for the essentials. You can store a...

Pros: Great deals
Cons: choices taken out of your hands
I needed to get a ticket to Illinois quickly. A friend in the travel industry suggested Priceline.com. I got online and filled in the information and how much I was willing to spend and when I needed to be fly. I was able to get a ticket on a major...

Pros: fair pricing
Cons: big hassles all the way around
In April, I purchased 3 roundtrip tickets Cleveland/Denver. The price was pretty good (so I was told, since I hadn't traveled by air lately), but real trouble arose when, on the return flight from Denver to Cincy to Akron, we missed the check in time by...

Pros: Can get outstanding fares on Airline tickets
Cons: Can't choose your own schedule
I have been reading some of the reviews not recommending Priceline and have to admit that I am getting stirred up by the lack of intelligence among the authors. They expect that Priceline is going to work for them on their terms. One has to be aware of...

Pros: Possibility of getting cheap plane tickets
Cons: Poor customer service
Recently, I made several attempts at finding cheap tickets to Europe on Priceline.com. Finally, one of my bids was accepted, but according to Priceline's website and the email I received, my credit card was not accepted. I was given the option to try it...

Pros: it's on-line
Cons: you pay more
When my family put in a bid for an airline ticket for us to Oklahoma for a my Aunt's wedding we didn't make the cut. Priceline does offer tickets at auction prices but you may not always get the price you want, or a price lower than that of the actual...

Pros: You have a coin toss chance of getting cheap tickets
Cons: Powerless Customer service
My tickets arrived with the wrong destination. I refused them. Priceline charged me $100 to cancel them, but then misled me for months that the bad ticket cost would be refunded to me. Now they say it is my problem.
From the tone of the...

Pros: easy to use, cheap, good customer service
Cons: cannot choose time of flight
If you can be a flexible traveler Priceline.com is a real steal. The navigation of the site is above average and there are clearly marked instructions and there is no small print. They are upfront about charging your card and making it known that you...

Pros: Low Price
Cons: Can't choose flights, which made it difficult!
I travel about 2-3 times a year and I'm always looking for the best deals for tickets. When I first heard about Priceline, I was ecstatic! A chance to name my own price. Well, I still think it's a good idea but I'm torn. Let me Explain:

Pros: price
Cons: no control over airline, length of flight or time of flight
I have only used Priceline.com once, but here's what I did.
I was going to visit some friends in Oklahoma City, and I didn't have a lot of time to buy the tickets in advance. I went to www.travelocity.com and saw the best price was $267 through...

Pros: easy to use
Cons: they have contracts with dumpy hotels
The process of booking a hotel on the priceline is very very easy, but - there is always a but. I wish you could review your hotel and accomadations before they change your credit card.
Here is my story..... I book a 4 star hotel in Orlando and...
