What is the cheapest deal you can get me to travel from Omaha, NE to PDX (Portland, OR) from December 24th to December 31st, give or take a day on each date. (round trip) Make it a full week though. The first person that finds me the cheapest ticket I can book online will get 10 points. Thanks!

Not meant to offend anyone. I already looked at travelocity, sidestep.com, priceline. I thought maybe someone could come up with a lower figure than $345. Someone may know more tricks than I do about online booking.

also try a travel agent. sometimes the airlines rip you off and other times the travel agents rip you off.
look around and don't be scared to go "deep" (have a big look around)
if money concerns you, go to a travel agent (a good one) and if they think that a internet fare is better i am sure that they will help you!
Good Luck

I agree with Stafflers. There are people who will reasearch for you and there are work arounds - they are called travel agents and you will get charged a fee. It is the great global public who decided that they wanted to do it all online, the thing is with online is that you are getting your question answered, but you may not have asked the right question. Advice on buying airline tickets: One. The most financially insecure way of buying an air ticket is buying directly from an airline. Two. (Probably) the most expensive way of buying anything but the simplest of tickets is directly from an airline. Three . The second most expensive way of buying anything but the simplest of tickets, is buying on the internet. You ain't going to get the answer for ten points. You will get the answer by going to see a travel agent. It may be "no" and cost you 10 or 20 bucks, but you will travel with knowledge that your money was well spent.

This isn't a question this is a request for slavery.
Travel agents get paid lots of money from airlines to do just what you are asking people to do for 10 points.
Try opodo.com or - and this may come as a shock - call a travel agent.

Try hotwire.com. The dates you have in mind are peak travel times so it's going to be higher no matter where you go.
