Can I get a refund from United Airlines?
I have a one way flight to San Diego and a one way flight from Santa Ana to San Francisco. I bought these tickets on priceline and they are supposedly non-refundable. Unfortunately these flights are next week, and I cannot make these flights because I had a death in the family. I was hoping to get at least half of my money back. Is it possible?

Unfortunately no

You'll get at least half. I think it's somewhere between 2/3 and 3/4
3 :
Probably not, if you bought restricted, non-refundable tickets you most likely will not get a refund. You may be able to get credit for a future flight but may have to pay a fee. Hopefully, you can talk to a sympathetic United agent you might allow you to get something, but if you bought a highly restricted, deeply discounted ticket, United is not obligated to do anything but abide by the terms and conditions and fare rules for the ticket you bought. Give them a call and see what they say.

99% NOT! But, if you can prove of the special circumstances that are making you forfeit these tickets, it may be. Just call and let them know. Even better try to e:mail to customer service with all the details.
5 :
if it was a published fare maybe....Priceline probably kills any chance

I suggest that when you go to the travel office, ensure you tell them you are looking for the military discount. Telling them that information makes their prices search much simpler. A lot of variations exist, so ensure you tell the office.
2 :
I think Continental offers great price. They have a business class that feels like first calss. For what we get, it is cheaper, when compared with others airlines.
3 :
When I was in the military everything went through SATO travel. It may not even exist anymore. Anyway, they would find the cheapest fights or bus or whatever. Kinda like Orbits or Expedia. The problem was you would fly way out of your way or pass you destination and have to back track (most of the time) and you never got a direct flight unless you were headed to a hot spot. The other option is if you are in the military to see if you can get a military flight, like in the cargo hold of a C-130 or something.

Why are you not calling the Airlines? Look at the Internet there is a lot in formations about the flights, prices ....
2 :
You need to go to several different sites to price it out and then see who offers the lowest rates. This will be the best way to find out. All the online discounters are all pretty safe to go through. Just be sure you understand policies, etc. in case you need to cancel or change your flight. Look over what you book several times to make sure it is what you want/need. As far as the one site that is the best, it's really hard to tell you. They will all vary and change all the time. One site may be lower for one person, higher for the next. You just have to do your research and see what yo find. In my expereince, the cheapest way to go is directly through the airline. In my past dozen trips, that I can remember, the airline has always been cheaper than the online discounters. Just look around and see what you can find. Check around online. There are several online discounters, like expedia, priceline, orbitz, etc. This is usually the cheapest way to go. But you should also check directly through airline sites to see if they are running a special. It is also easier to make changes if you use the airline directly instead of a discounter. For example, air tran often offers discounted tickets on Tuesdays and Thursdays and it is cheaper than through other online sites. I prefer to go with the air sites directly. Not only are they usually a less than discounters, but if you have to make a change or cancel, it is a lot easier than going with the discounters. Also watch in the newspapers and such, they often advertise specials in the newspaper . Hope this helps!
3 :
If you search around you should be able to find one anywhere from $250 (lowest)-$600 (highest)
4 :
Which ever airline you chose, tell them why you are going, they may give an additional discount.

What is the best day to book airline tickets
What is the best day to book airline tickets?
I'm trying to book a flight to San Diego from San Jose on Southwest Airlines because I found a roundtrip for $88.00. Anyway, I've noticed that on certain days it goes up. I tried to book it on Friday and today and it was at more than $300.00. Why does it go up on certain days? And what days is the cheapest day to book tickets. Not to fly but to book.
