$100 Cash - Search For A Flight For Me!

[scart3r]

Hey :D

I need to fly from Sydney AU (SYD) to Miami (FLL) and need someone to do the best deal for me.

I don't have time to hunt around - so am going to pay the person who can find the best price - some cash!

I need to leave Sydney somewhere between the 3rd and 6th of Jan - and then leave the US around the 18th-20th

So.. here is the challenge.

If you can get seats for less than $3000 I will give you $100 cash (into paypal)

Over $3,000 I will give you $50 cash

I am only going to pay the winner - the person who finds the best AVAILABLE flight - and if two people post the same info, I will give it to the person who posted it first.

Happy Hunting!

Cindy

P.S. You may need to phone the airline to confirm that there is a seat available - many of them say they are ok - and then when you speak to them they are fully booked. Skype is a cheap option for calling - usually about 1 cent a minute - and some places have 1800 (toll free) numbers too.

THanks guys - i have found a few myself too. I am not looking for you to just do a google search - I am aware of the websites out there that offer suggestions. I don't just want a google answer (not for $100! I can do that myself)

I need to you confirm that there are flights available - and then let me know the details so I can confirm.

I'll leave this competitoin open for the next 24 hours - so if you think you can beat Jorge05r (that is if thre are seats available - can you please check?) then let me know!

Cheers!
Cindy

Doing a quick search - i found this: http://www.kayak.com/s/flights.jsp?searchid=eP8Mdvz715OBTS_umNW$ow&completed=true

I am not sure if anything is available though - that is where you need to work to earn your $100.. hehe

[scart3r]

Oh! I forgot something! The prices need to be in Australian Dollars. I just thought i found a sweet one - but it was in US - which adds on an extra 30% to the price.

scart3r, I've heard Sydney is really nice. I might try your contest, and I also wanted to say...

If you can get seats for less than $3000...

Wow! :eek:
If I ever make it to AU it might be one-way.
Have fun.

Do you mean that the price needs to be in austarlian dollars:
In other worlds we have to find the equivalent of 3000 australian dollars which is 2112 american dollars?
Please correst me if I m wrong.
Thank you

Hello Scarter,

I found this one:
Depart: SYD 3:15 PM
Arrive: MIA 11:04 PM
Total price: 3,968 (Australian dollars)
Currently available, I signed up on their site, order it then I called them and ticket was verified as available.
Then just told them I would think about it since I'm not the one who's going to order it ;)

[scart3r]

I found this one - so it looks like the current one to beat:

I can currently get the below flights for $3702pp (or if you pay via
direct deposit/bpay as a cash amount I can get the flights for $3633pp).

Found some flights on Vayama.com (http://www.tkqlhce.com/click-3143664-10534368) for about $2560...but couldn't get the price into Aussie Dollars. Anyways, I've used that site before and got excellent deals. Maybe it will help you or other people looking for international flights. :)
