Question for avid travelers[views:3972][posts:12]________________________________________ [Sep 27,2004 6:13pm - My_Dying_Bride ""] where is the best place to buy plane tickets??? so far online ive checked the tv advertised ones like priceline, expedia, and travelocity, and priceline seemed to be the best. the destination is athens greece, and any airport within 100 miles or so (even NYC) for departure. can anyone help me? or just throw some suggestions this way |

| ________________________________________ [Sep 27,2004 6:15pm - My_Dying_Bride ""] planes get me to europe faster than 7 weeks |
| __________________________________ [Sep 27,2004 6:17pm - goratory ""] we went everywhere trying to find good prices and ended up at some travel agency on Newbery St. in Boston. I found that travel agancies offer the best prices and many of them have deals on certain locations. Call every one around your area untill you get a good price on Greece. |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 27,2004 6:21pm - mammalsauce ""] the travel agency on newbury is called STA Travel, and also depending on your age, you can get even cheaper tickets through them if you are under 24, they have a website too if you want to check out the prices and stuff |

| ________________________________________ [Sep 27,2004 6:45pm - My_Dying_Bride ""] awesome!!!thanks guys!! what is the STA site called? anne - i have noticed they are alot cheaper than most other flights, have you ever flown them? |
| _______________________________________ [Sep 27,2004 7:04pm - armageddonday ""] Not yet, cause I always ended up finding a better deal somewhere else. Friends of mine did and they were very satisfied with their service/price. Next time I go to Europe I will defenitely fly with Iceland air, you can stay 2 night in Iceland with no extra charges (up to 1 week), I plan on staying there for about 4 days before going to Europe. I mean, if you can afford it, you add an extra $200 to your ticket and you get hotel, and tours for 2 days (I think). You can't go wrong by going in Iceland then to Greece...actually 2 countries I'm planning on going soon. |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 27,2004 7:18pm - mammalsauce ""] the site is just www.statravel.com |
| ________________________________________ [Sep 27,2004 8:11pm - My_Dying_Bride ""] nice nice.....thanks all |
| __________________________________________ [Sep 28,2004 5:07pm - Josiah_the_Black ""] matt i have seen that statravel place before also, you guys who are giving us feedback, athens isnt the set place we just picked it, if theres anywhere else close to there that is cheaper let us know another possibility was rome |
