Booking Flights in Europe & Asia

Conde Nast's March 2008 issue of Traveler magazine had a travel tip section
that the winner of their best site for Booking Flights in Europe was www.wegolo.com
Wegolo searches 75 budget airlines for low fares between European cities.
In Conde Nast's test on the heavily trafficked London-Paris route, Wegolo had the lowest fare among seven sites for an itinerary one month in advance. The $160 RT fare on EasyJet was $17 lower than what Kayak posted. For a round-trip booking 90 days in advance between Brussels and Madrid, Wegolo's fare of $115 was $42 lower than most of its competitors.

and the Conde Nast Traveler best site for Booking Flights in Asia was www.zuji.com

Zuji, owned by Travelocity, is a pan-Asian portal with links to online agencies based in seven countries; the prices found of those home country sites often yielded prices lower than found elsewhere.

For example, for a 14-day advance booking on a round-trip flight from Sydney to Auckland, Zuji's Austrian-based site offered a nonstop fare on Air New Zealand for $370, which was $284 less than Kayak for the lowest rates on the same carrier.

Caveat, fares are offered in local currencies (for currency conversion www.xe.com won their best site rating)

www.vayama.com was runner up in the Booking Flights in Asia category

Thanks

I appreciate the links for Europe as we book short hauls to travel from one country to another.

Nice find. Thanks for the tip.

I also use www.whichbudget.com to find the web sites of the airlines to double check.

Cheers
