    One of our local stations here in the NY area recently did a story on some alternative websites to find fares instead of the usual Expedia, Hotwire, Orbiz, etc. Give it a shot.

    We surveyed 100 chicas and the top 69 answers are on the board. Here's the question...

    Around this time of the year you really have no good deals till Sept. out of Ohare. If you don't mind driving to Rockford where you can park for free you can go to http://www.vacationexpress.com/vacat.../puerto_plata/
    I found 4 day or 7 day flights for under 400.00 . They fly from Rockford to Sanford Florida then to POP. Not too bad and you stay on the plane.

    well The best thing for me to do was to delay the trip until Memorial day weeknd. I booked the flight directly through American so I can cancel if I need to. It is $772. Which sucks major ass but I only have a 1.5 hr layover in Mia. Well hopefully Hispanolia real estate can come trough on an apt for me.

    shorter layover time. on a short trip time IS money!

    don't know if it's worth $106USD to me but.....
    When you can think of yesterday without regret and tomorrow without fear, you are near contentment.
    Your opinions are not my problem...

    the 700 fligh is only a 6 and a half hour total including layover, the 666 is is a 14 overnight flight, i am not prepared to to that kinda waitin. You all are my fellas but its not worth that much to kick it with you. lol
