Priceline offers a variety of different services. Their airline ticket service can potentially save you a good deal of money however it requires that you be very flexible in your flight times. Sometimes however the savings is worth it. One of the...

Pros: Easy to use, Great Prices, Great for last minute travel
Cons: No choice of airlines, less flexible.
Dallas is the home of the Wright Amendment, which allows the big airlines to charge much higher fares into Dallas as compared to fares into Austin!
In the past, I would book flights into Austin, then drive (3 hours) to the Dallas area. (With...

We have used priceline.com for all of our travel needs. We recently bid $20 bucks a night for a maingate Disney hotel. We were planning a trip but suddenly our transmission want out and it cost $1000 to replace, so we had to get a good deal to keep our...

Pros: good deals!
Cons: no refunds, little choice on times
I have used Priceline 3 times and I saved money every time...with a catch. I found out quickly about the downside to this service. First, you make a bid on a trip or a hotel room and Priceline searches for a company that accepts your offer. If they don't...

Pros: price
Cons: service, flexibility, troubleshooting
I bought a round trip pair of tickets on Priceline in order to travel from Austin, Texas to New York City, with the understanding that I was sacrificing choice of travel hours for "savings." However, I did not plan on sacrificing the service...

Pros: cheap flights
Cons: Irresponsible, bad business practices
Recently, I purchased airline tickets with priceline. The day before my return flight, I called to confirm my flights. It ended up that one of my flights was cancelled. I panicked! I called priceline and told them of the problem. They said...

Pros: cheap
Cons: horrible service
While you can find cheap airfare here, or make cheap hotel reservations here, the customer service stinks. In fact, it is the worst customer service I have ever encountered in my life. If you have a problem with your ticket, too bad. If you have a...

Pros: SAVE LOTS OF $$$$$$
Cons: sometimes don't get what you want exactly
First, let me say that I only use priceline for the groceries, not the plain tickets. Thats a hassle.
I just started using priceline's grocery savings. And I've saved over half the amount I would have spent if I would have just gone to the...

Pros: Let me think...oh yeh, I booked on-line.
Cons: Cumbersome system--inconvenient scheduling.
Great theory...wonderful advertising...but does PRICELINE really deliver the goods? From my experience I'd have to give them an average grade, and would be a more thoughtful...more informed consumer next time. But hey, an average grade's not bad, and...

Pros: Great discounts
Cons: They get you a ticket at anytime during the day, whether or not you are available!!!
Many of us heard of Priceline.com. This service somehow or another offers
us incredible discounts off of many items from loans, to groceries.
Priceline.com is probably most popular for it's airline ticket deals.
Many people have saved...

Pros: cheapest possible way to purchase airline tickets, easy to do
Cons: The most restricted airline ticket you'll ever buy
THE GOOD
Just about the cheapest place to buy airline tickets if you don't mind some inconveniences. The more inconveniences that you don't mind the more you can save. (Such as flying on a non-jet aircraft, more than 2 connections, off-peak...

Pros: cheap
Cons: your totally at their mercy
i will preface the forthcoming bashing by admitting that those guys did bail me out of paying a lot of money for a plane ticket, even though the train may well have been faster in the end. the problem with priceline lies in its inflexibility (they put...

Pros: A great tool. Fun. Cheap!
Cons: Not for everyone, or every situation.
"If all you have is a hammer, every problem is a nail"
When it comes to Priceline.com, it is a mistake to think it is THE way to buy airline tickets! It is only one tool to keep at hand for those occasions when the travel problem...

Pros: great deals but
Cons: not always easy to find
I'm going home for Christmas for $75 round trip (Boston to Raleigh) thanks to Priceline.com. Airlines are a strange business, always offering last-minute deals and deals if you book a year in advance. It's cheaper if you stay over a Sunday and leave on...

Pros: none
Cons: trying to rip you off
I have tried to use priceline.com often. I never was able to get a plane ticket for cheaper than I could go to the travel agent and buy a ticket. I never go that far, DC to Hartford. A few weeks ago I tried to get a ticket for my boyfriend to come visit...
