Hello all-
I have a sister (and 18 month old nephew) living in the greater Denver area,=
and
thus cheap airfare to Denver is a bit of an obsession of mine. I recently
found, through the Washington Post's Travel section, a great new search =
engine
for airfare. It is still in its beta test form, but has done very well for =
me
(I got a quote for =24222 USD round-trip from the Washington DC area to =
Denver for
mid-March) . The address is www.itasoftware.com Once you are there, click =
on
their try our beta software button and off you go. It does seem to work =
better
if you have the standard city codes for the airports you are considering, =
and
you can get those from www.flyaow.com/citycode.htm
I'm not going to NCECA- just wanted to share my new found toy. I've been
frustrated by other web based search engines while looking for airfare, and =
this
one has very useful features such as being flexible about dates, times and =
even
airports, so you don't have to keep trying different combinations, it is all
taken care of in one inclusive search. I liked it. Thought it might prove
useful to others.

Hi Carolyn=21

I just bought a ticket to Denver from Newark Airport (NJ) for the 29th of
Jan. (need that annual ski break=21=21=21). The round trip fare was =24299 =
from
United. Friends coming to NCECA with me in March got their tickets (RT
from Newark) for =24339 from Continental just last week. It was in the
=24400 range last month.

Hope this helps some.
