Oh for the love of..... You can't be serious! MUST we really ask this question every week people??? http://www.eslcafe.com/forums/job/viewtopic.php?t=44844 http://www.eslcafe.com/forums/job/viewtopic.php?t=43725 http://www.eslcafe.com/forums/job/viewtopic.php?t=41114 http://www.eslcafe.com/forums/job/viewtopic.php?t=41085 http://www.eslcafe.com/forums/job/viewtopic.php?t=40583 http://www.eslcafe.com/forums/job/viewtopic.php?t=37823 http://www.eslcafe.com/forums/job/viewtopic.php?t=37742 http://www.eslcafe.com/forums/job/viewtopic.php?t=37527 http://www.eslcafe.com/forums/job/viewtopic.php?t=30755 http://www.eslcafe.com/forums/job/viewtopic.php?t=32086 http://www.eslcafe.com/forums/job/viewtopic.php?t=23166 http://www.eslcafe.com/forums/job/viewtopic.php?t=21021 And more and more and more...... Now what kind of answer were we expecting that would be so completely different from what has been discussed in any mof these threads? FWIW, I'm not angry at the OP -- I'm just frustrated and the GENERAL lack of peoples' willingness to a little bit of legwork to answer their questions.

In terms of travel agents, I am thinking about not using them anymore. I found a cheap ticket to Korea--cheaper than anything I was quoted by a Japanese agent--on Kayak.com. My co-worker uses Travelocity. I'm not sure if it's always cheaper to go through online ticket agencies (could depend on time of the year and the destination), but I'll always try online sites first. Anyone have other success stories?

I concur. I just booked my cheapest (and best) flight to go home to the states for winter break through orbitz.com

sidestep.com is also another good travel site.

Orbitz was a better deal to me than both H.I.S. and IACE.

The problem I have found with most of these online travel agencies is that they want you to have a NA credit card. Anyone know of one that doesn't?
