I'm going to visit my girl in Portland, OR around Thanksgiving and have been trying to find decently priced airfare. I understand that tickets are going to be more expensive around the holidays so I'm planning on flying in the Monday before and leaving the Monday after to try to get around this.
Basically, I suck at the interwebs and was wondering if you could refer me to any sites that ya'll use for booking cheap(er) flights. So far ~$300 seems like the cheapest, but I think I should be able to find something better. |

kayak.com is pretty great, it searches all the other sites and doesnt have too much nonsense to distract you/bother you

If a branch is available in your area and you are under 25 I recommend STA Travel.
www.statravel.com I've used it for trips to Australia, Hong Kong, Toronto, Taipei and the prices have been better than any internet price I was able to find, usually by around 20 percent or so. Also, you can change the return flight date for a $35 fee, within a year timespan from the departure date. I've never used it for domestic flights though, so I dont know how good it is for that. |

Regarding STA, every time I try to use them for domestic travel their prices are $200 greater than orbitz/expedia. I used them for international travel once and they were the best deal though.

for comparison shopping i would get quotes from all these sources:
orbitz.com expedia.com priceline.com hotels.com and last but not least, give these quotes to your local travel agent and see if they can beat them. red-eye flights and layovers obviously save some money, but are nuisances. |
