oh yeah, and one more thing, if you book that flight on one of travelocity, expedia, et al., it is best to get the detailed info for the fare, find the fare code and then go to the carriers site and try and get that same fare code. If that doesn't work, then you can call them and give them specifically that code and try and get the reservation.

Reason being is it will save you the $10 or so bucks to the website and increases your chances of actually getting a seat. All flights can be oversold, since the carries expect a 20% no-show (I know that is ridic...), but the chances of getting a ticket with no seat are higher when you use those sites. They just don't have all the correct info..

And, out of curiosity, either use a different browser or clear your cookies and try again on, say, travelocity. The status of your cookies can affect the price they offer you. Not always for the worst, though, so it is better to try it with a different browser without a cookie for those sites.

Travelocity is known for showing a slightly higher fare the second time you do a search, since odds are you are coming back to book that flight.
