I have been pricing flights from Casper WY to Moscow in June so far I have received quotes ranging from $862.00 and up.  The 862.00 ticket appears to have been vapor.  The cheapest ticket I could book was 880.00 through tripmakers.  The trip I just returned from was 650.00 plus taxes Casper to Moscow.  I bought this through priceline.  I took my lowest price quote and subtracted 75.00.  This is the only time Priceline worked for me.

Hi,

 Bids start at 1$ and go from there on SKYAUCTION.COM. You can get a trip or ticket anywhere in the world and there is no monimum bid. I once got a ticket to London for 198.00 total roundtrip from Houston.
 This site has tickets to Ukraine and Russia and most have connections to most US airports. Timing is everything here on SkyAuction.com but it's better than any I have seen.
 I purchased my Ticket to Moscow from Houston RT for 493.00 with expedia and my jaw almost dropped when that price offer came through.....GREAT DEAL...lol

Me and one other guy here just got tickets for about $775 out the door round trip to the Ukraine in May. You should be able to find a good price around this in April.  I use a local travel agent the other guy used orbitz.com or something like this....

Good luck,

...a suck deal. Best to use a consolidator like Glavs Travel in NYC, you'll do better. When I had to pay, thats who I used. Talk to Neli.

lol, I last paid about $25, round trip.

Hey now,

Glad to see others have had the same experience.  I have been getting tickets via Neli for the past two years, going from DC non-stop to Moscow.

Just bought one today for my mother-in-law, who is coming to visit next month.  She is staying more than 30 days, so the price is higher, but the less than one-month price right now is $457.50.

Of course, now you have to tell her that both Steve and LP sent you...

...question. You know it isn't completely free. There are some fees and taxes to be paid.

I'm sure you must know this, so why the typical wise ass  question?

Gosh! Surely you don't mean $25! If so, then I certainly got ripped big! Perhaps you meant $425?$525? $625?

...you didn't get ripped. And yes, I meant $25.

Unfortunately you don't have access to these arrangements, they are reserved for those employed in the airline, aviation, and travel industries. Those who drive the bus (as well as others who work in the industry and their families) are allowed these privledges.

Sorry, but all the other self loading cargo has to pony up the best fare they can find.

...Whats wrong with that? Doesn't your company's customers pay for your salary and benefits?

Beleive me, It isn't all fun and games, especially these days. Between the Gum'mint and the loonies (is there a difference?), it can be a real chore.
