Brian the least you could have done is give the name of the travel
agent where you got your ticket so i can purchase one from chicago to
PI for 920.00 dollars.
thahk you.
> Those prices do not strike me as a bargain, $550 one way to Manila
from LAX seems to be a lot. I fly out of Chicago which usually is at
least $200 more than flights from LAX on round trips. I just paid
$980 round trip total cost for 6 month open ended ticked leaving Feb
12Th and could have gotten it for $920 if my stay was under 2 months.
>
> From my experience those travel web sites have NEVER beaten pricing
from a good travel agent/ ticket consolidator.

Next

fly

flight

card.
