How priceline Works

Airline Tickets:
Now you can name your own price for airline tickets and let airlines pick the flights where they have empty seats.

Priceline works to try to get you advance purchase or economy fares when you can't get them yourself.

With priceline, you can name any price you want. However, to maximize your chances of getting a seat at your price, we strongly recommend that you do not request ticket prices below the airlines' lowest advance purchase fares. To increase your chances of getting tickets at your price, priceline uses its proprietary databases and also searches millions of constantly changing published fares.

Here are the 4 easy steps we recommend to name your own price:

Shop around for the lowest available advance purchase fares for your trip on a major airline (even check their website when flying at the last minute).
If the lowest fare you find fits your budget and seats are available, we recommend that you buy those tickets, since fares and availability change constantly.
If not, let priceline try to find empty seats for you, at the price you want to pay.
Remember, the more reasonable your price, the better your chance of getting tickets.
