Priceline Last Minute Booking/Help! Please?
November 9th, 2008 adminPooh13 asked:
Ok my wife and I are going to Florida to visit my family for a few days in Feb. Feb 18-22, to be exact. We live in St. Louis. Usually I can drive this in about 16 hrs.
However, I was told since I know my exact travel date, around Feb 17, go to Priceline and book St. Louis-Orlando, and do the “name my own price” at the last minute, and we may be able to book a flight as low as $120 grand total price for both roundtrip. As the airlines will release unsold seats to Priceline dirt cheap.
Is this true?
