What travle site has the lowest deals for last minute trips?
Q. My great aunt died and my mom is trying to make it to the furneral. She doesn't have a lot of money and we are trying to get the lowest possible rates. She needs to leave from Milwuakee or Madison, WI and fly to Lawton, OK on 4/27/07 to 4/29/07 any time. We thought booking the hotel with the flight would give us cheaper rates but we don't have to. What site do you suggest?
A. The best rate that I found was from Madison to Oklahoma City (a little over an hour drive from Lawton) for $920.00 - the flight was on United and the hotel was the Ramada in Lawton itself. I located this on travelocity.com. Try calling United and see if they can get your mother a bereavement fare - sometimes they will have mercy.
If you know of any regional airlines then check their websites too - I looked at Jet Blue, Southwest and Frontier.

Is it cheaper to book a hotel and flight separately?
Q. We are planning a vacation to hawaii next year for two adults. I tried priceline and orbitz packages and they give me the rate for flight and hotel per person. Lets say 1500. So total would be 3000. When I go to book just the hotel for two, its much much cheaper because they are not doubling it. Why is this?
A. My own experience says "yes", as a general rule. I should clarify that and say that I am referring to the UK, whereas I imagine you could be in the USA.
We have 3 holidays per year booking the flight and hotel separately and a considerable saving is made by doing it that way. The flights are booked well in advance directly with the airline, usually shortly after release, and I then use a booking agent (Alpharooms or Travel Republic) for the hotel. The price does tend to fluctuate, depending on the exchange rate, so I tend to watch the price for a while and book when it compares favourably with my last visit.
Once a year, usually in the winter months, we do book a package with a tour operator. This is always a late deal and in this instance the price is cheaper than I could do it by booking the various ingredients separately.
Good luck.
