I need a good site for researching/purchasing airline tickets for international travel. Anyone have any suggestions?

Just guessing, I found [flycheap.com](http://flycheap.com) and [cheaptickets.com](http://cheaptickets.com) which both beat orbtiz and travelocity.

I can do a google search, but nothing beats recommendations.

Thanks!

I’ve gotten the best rates for Europe using travelocity and expedia.

See

But I’ve done very well doing to individual airline sites. Bon voyage! 🆒

I should clarify. This is not for Europe.

Thanks to both **violet** and **x-ray** for the suggestions, though. I went to expedia and they had a deal and a half for my trip. Now I just need to wait to see if the airlines comfirm it.
