Pros: Innovative idea Cons: Expects customers to commit to unknown companies & terms
Twice now I have tried to use Priceline.com's services, once when shopping for a home mortgage and several months later when my internet-impaired sister asked me to try to find her a good deal on a hotel for an upcoming trip to Florida.

My experience with Priceline is limited, but I've had enough to call it a glass half full and half empty.
I've bid on airline tickets via Priceline several times; in only one case was my bid accepted, but in that case (round trip, St. Louis to...

Pros: Catchy commercials Cons: Apparently they don't pay
I have never used this service as a consumer but
I can't endorse Priceline.com for the stand point
of being an affiliate.
On February 15 of this year I began the affiliation
through Reporting.Net. If you follow the links on ...

Pros: I don't have to hear William Shatner "sing" anymore Cons: Hidden fees, You're stuck
Having sighted a good air fare on a destination that I wanted to go to on a Saturday morning, I decided to wait until the evening before purchasing my ticket on line. First big mistake! When surfing for cheap air fares, the price can change in a matter...

Pros: Cheap...kinda Cons: Totally ridiculous restrictions, rude customer service reps, no resolution/accomadations
Cheap. It's the word that seems to permeate the vocabulary of college students across the country. Whether it be the beer we drink (Coors Light) or the cereal we eat (off-brand), we're always looking for a cheaper deal. And why not? As students, its not...

Pros: low prices for the flexible leisure traveler Cons: no business travel; need to give up brand and time of day for travel
As part of his trip down memory lane, The Insider is going back and sprucing up some of his older reviews. This one was actually the first epinion ever posted! Sniff... those were the days... Site Design and Interface The homepage of ...

Pros: can be cheap Cons: can be horrible flight times
Ok, so its one city and two trips, but that doesn't sound as poetic.
I've now used priceline for two trips to LA from Boston, one personal and one business.
Bottom line, priceline doesn't work all that well for business trips but...

Pros: You can now pick your price and pump, convenient service, the more the customer has to select from, the better Cons: May wipe out independent gas stations...More power to the true consumers...potential for long lines...
Giving away gas! Well, this is about what www.priceline.com wants to get into by May 2000. If you are not familiar with the Priceline.com discounting services, the company started letting consumers pick or set their own price for airline tickets, hotel...

Pros: Very easy to use! Cons: None!
I was recently invited to attend the wedding of a cousin, who is in the Navy, stationed in San Diego. I am in Connecticut. I had never flown before, but was excited about the prospect. I definitely wanted to go to the wedding, so if I wasn't going to...

Pros: can get a good price Cons: not very flexible
All of my family lives on the other side of the continent, and I am an opera singer, so air travel is an issue of great importance to me, and has been for some time. More specifically, budgeting for travel has been quite a challenge, particularly during...

Pros: cheap tickets obviously! user friendly site, speedy replies Cons: can be misleading, you're stuck once you hit send
You just might save hundreds of dollars, We did! However, you'll sacrifice a number of things in the process! Make sure you are 1000% sure you can handle the arrangements you input before you hit send with your credit card information on priceline.com....

Pros: Huge discounts on airfare Cons: Can't fly standby on the day of travel
There was a time several years ago when I used online weekend airfare specials to do some traveling to see friends and family. I had every airline that was available to my destination sending me their weekly emails so that I could see if any would work....

Pros: You CAN find a reasonable flight Cons: No options, non-refundable, non-changeable
With trepidation, I used Priceline.com to purchase my round trip tickets from Washington National to Denver, Colorado. I say trepidation as I had read the horror stories here on Epinions about layovers, multiple stops and the no-exchange, no-credit...

Pros: Cheap stuff! Easy site to navigate, good online help and email help Cons: I've got 2 kids that need a room too!
Imagine a service that would allow you to stay in a Four Star hotel for the cost of a budget motel...No, it's not a daydream, Priceline.com is real. It's real, and it really does work! Along with the success stories, however, are all the little details...

Pros: Easy to use and it works. Cons: Once you click on your offer you're stuck good.
Having written a reasonably popular review counselling sanity and planning when it comes to air travel, I found myself in a quandary yesterday. A sudden vacation window opened and I could not get my regular carrier to come up with what I felt was a...
