Don't know about their regular tickets, they must just book through someone else's search engine. I've had some great luck on auctions mostly in the not so recent past. One I just won a week or so ago and put in my date preferences for Easter 2008 for Rio and they just CONFIRMED at 5:05pm today for Mar07. Of course there's no one there after 5.

I have used Skyauction 7 times without problems. We have bid on charter flights, hotels, resorts, and once a package with air and room. Once when they could not accommodate our dates, we were not charged. Be careful to add up the extra fees and taxes. They are all clearly listed in the auction. Sometimes I can find better deals on other sites. Other times I have gotten a real bargain.
The charter flights were at specific times so I knew going in what my arrival and departure times would be. When we won a trip to Cancun, I was a little worried what kind of connections we would have. They were very decent times - no redeyes or bad connections. I have been very happy with Skyauction and would not hesitate to use them again.

I'm looking for flights to the British Isles in June/July. By the time you add all the fees, their regular flights don't seem to be much of a bargain for this location. I do think one of their packages that include nights in London might save us money, since we need to rent four nights there anyway.

I'm (painfully) waiting for a commitment from the last two family members to start bidding.
