  1. I don't think you'll find any with todays economical problem. Many cheap airlines have closed down.


  2. the cheapest i found is on cheap flights.com the cheapest was $832

  3. airfarewatchdog.com

  4. try http://asianairfares.com

  5. According to orbitz.com, the cheapest ticket showing up for those dates is on Northwest Airlines, for just over $1200.  This price is largely attributable to the fact that you are looking to fly in only six days, meaning you wouldn't be eligible for cheaper fares with seven-day advance purchase requirements.  If you were able to push your departure date back a day to July 14, you'd be able to save $300 or more because those 7-day advance fares would become available.

    Otherwise, your best bet would be at this point to place a bid with priceline.com to see whether they'd accept a lower bid.  Don't be surprised, though, if they would accept a bid of less than $1,000 at this point, given the last-minute nature of your ticket.

    EDIT:  I'd venture that the $832 found by the other poster uses flexible dates and not the fixed dates you specify.  Also note that a ticket for a 17-year-old will cost the same as an adult -- there are generally no discounts for minors unless it is a child under the age of 2.

  6. Offering ten points generally means that one gets the less detailed or crappy answers.

    Check the online sites and get a general idea. Then call the actual airline itself and ask about the airfare. 9 times out of ten it will be much cheaper .
