I stopped using Travelocity, Orbitz, Expedia, and Cheaptickets when they stopped offering a flexible search option for flights. I don’t have time to sit around entering date after date to try and find the cheapest/best flights. Now for searching flights I use Google Flights, Kayak, or FareCompare, then purchase on the airline’s own site unless I’m booking a package.
