I write less on www.ericrush.com than I did here, so I'll start paying attention to this again. Working on a new book: It's Too Bad I'll Never Build Another House Because Next Time I'd Know What I Was Doing

CheapTickets.com smells scammy

I checked Travelocity and Cheap Tickets online and found much better prices for the trip I was planning on Cheap Tickets. More than a dozen flight choices at $329.

But! Every time I selected one, it came back with, "Sorry, that flight is now $800" or thereabouts.

After wasting time with this bait-and-switch game, I called Cheap Tickets on the phone. The voice said the inaccuracies occur when airlines don't update their prices.

I went back to the Comment page on Cheap Tickets and expressed my displeasure in what I consider a civil manner. Suggested they insist the airlines post accurate prices or dump the airlines from the service.

Now, back to Travelocity...
