    Where do you get cheap airline tickets? I’ve got to haul a family of 4 from Boston to Orlando for a cheerleading competition and time is not on my side like when I plan a vacation 🙂

    I go in the beginning of February, thanks!

    From my understanding, kayak.com searches multiple sites like Orbitz, Travelocity, and Priceline for the lowest prices. I haven't used it before because I haven't flown in awhile but I always see the commercials and my mom has searched using it and says it works.

    NIU CPA Review Correspondence is awesome!

    I passed all four sections on the first attempt

    Thanks MMC, I looked at Kayak and found some good prices, slightly (very slightly) better going directly to the airline. This is so stressful, normally when I go away I start with finding the cheapest dates to fly then work around it. Not used to having to fly on a date that is dictated to me!

    I always find the “deals” from Kayak, Orbitz, Travelocity, etc. and then I always buy direct from the airline.

    Try YAPTA.com you can't actually book your flight there but you can track all your options, and see which flights are going up and down in price. Plus once you purchase you can put in your info and it will tell you if the flight dropped and how to obtain a refund and if it is worth it with all the fees the airlines charge. I just used it to book a flight 4 weeks out, I waited saw it dropped in price and jumped on it.

    A - 61, 91!!
    B - 78!
    F - 76!!!
    R - 71, 73, 74, 69, 77!!!!

    Finally done!

    This is my 2nd attempt at the exam, I had two parts passed (failed many) and I stupidly quit, big mistake. Now I'm back and with a vengeance!

    Priceline.com name your own price! Keep eye out on airline site and if you can't get a stellar price and seat availability is dwindling you might get stuck with avg price. Booked my flight to Hawaii and named my own price for $675 OTD where as kayak will have them for mid $800s

    @Da Bears, dang it! I paid about $1k each for Christmas in Hawaii tickets! I wish I had tried Priceline first :/
