What is the best airfare currently available for roundtrip travel from San 
Francisco to Paris, October 3-8, 2002?

Greetings from Google!

Finding the cheapest flights depends on several important questions.   Is your 
schedule flexible?  Do you want a direct flight or are you able to accommodate 
connections?  Are you willing to bargain for a flight?  Each of the 
aforementioned questions can deeply affect the price of your travel.

If you are a student or a faculty member of a school or university, Student 
University had the cheapest flight for $405.  There is a connection through New 
York City (John F. Kennedy Airport) on both the departure and return flight.  
Due to student and faculty restrictions, the site wouldn’t reveal the airlines 
but lists it as “a major airlines.”

The next cheapest flight was from Orbitz for $441 on United Airlines with a 
connection through Chicago on your return flight.  For an additional $10, you 
can change your connections through Washington D.C. and Denver.

There were significant increases in price when exploring other travel sites.  
Expedia’s flights start at $985.71 for a non-stop flight on British Airways.   
Travelocity’s cheapest ticket was $1220.30 for a non-stop flight through Air 
Canada.

Keep in mind that many of the aforementioned prices can change hourly and daily 
depending on the availability of their bookings.  When your are satisfied that 
you have found the cheapest flight, don’t hesitate to purchase it.  

Lastly, if you are willing to bid for a cheaper flight (and are flexible with 
your schedule) try a number of the travel auction sites listed in the Google 
category listed below (Auctions and Bids).
