Help! POE Question. Flight is MNL-Guam-Hawaii-NY-Atlanta

[Genesis1 0]

A lot of stops on that flight it seems like there should of been a flight with a fewer layovers If it was purchase because of price. the cheapest flight is not always the best option.

I know that, i'm not a newbie in terms of finding great deals/flight for airfares. Monitored these airlines airfares for a week ANA, JAL, Korean Air, EVAAir, PAL , Delta & United It's just that, this time i don't have any other choice. It's either i'll take this flight http://www.united.com/web/en-US/apps/booking/flight/searchResult1.aspx or i'll pay $1200-$1300 for one way ( which is usually a price for roundtrip ticket ).

Omg! Delta's new economy fare $2864 one way! I hope it's just a servers glitch ???

Prices are jacking up because spring break is coming...I booked a Delta flight for 1100 last week. IMO, they offer the bests connection if you're flying in East Coast.

Ty i'll consider this next time we fly, i had a bad experience with a flight search engine "3rd party flight booking CHEAPOAIR" I thought i already have the greatest, AWESOMESS flight deal but it's just a ripped off. ? had to pay additional fees and cancelation is just a PITA. That's why me and my family always prefer to book directly to the airline after that bad incident.

Here's the link http://www.united.com/web/en-US/apps/booking/flight/searchResult1.aspx

What flight will you choose? I wouldn't be having carry-on since i can check-in 2bags for free

That's a dead link for me because the details are cache in your PC. But I never fly UA going to the east coast, they have such bad connecting flights. I always fly Delta going to the east coast...2 connecting flights and you are done! My last flight was via Japan-Detroit- Cleveland....with max of 3 hrs layover each P

And we already booked my ticket for next month (1-way) and we paid USD1100. For me, 1100 is okay to pay the price of comfort...it's not a joke to fly that long especially in the coach section. To each its own, but to other travelers who are flying to the east coast here are my suggestion: avoid JFK airport, choose 3 layover max, and as someone mentioned cheapest is not the best option.

Everything is indeed awesome, specially when you are part of a team .

And never been to Puerto Rico or Bahamas so I would suggest that you start with the links provided by Greenbaum and maybe you will find great deals. However, I personally like to take advantage of loyalty programs by airlines and hotels. I travel a lot, both for business and pleasure and I try to fly the same airline and book the same hotel to accumulate points. So far, I have used my points for domestic flights, hotel accommodations and if you reached a certain mileage, you can get free upgrades to business class. Not a bad deal at all.

Yes you MIGHT find cheaper but you will spend days and hours and it can be hit or miss. It all depends on your "level of pain".

My example was only to illustrate how simple the two websites I offered and the speed at which I was able to find a lower price. If you have a better mouse trap then offer it up for the rest of us to use after all that's what this is all about, Isn't it?

We all would like to take advantage of a "different" approach to the same problem; cheaper flights.
