Priceline.com(R), the Name Your Own Price(SM) Internet service, has announced the start of a special 30-day airfare super sale for U.S. and international flights on its major-brand airline partners.

From now through June 5th, priceline.com customers can save up to 50 percent - or more - over published retail airline ticket prices to destinations throughout the U.S., Europe, Mexico, the Caribbean and elsewhere around the world.

Priceline.com is conducting the special sale in cooperation with its major airline partners to help get more travelers into the skies during the pre-summer-vacation months of May and June. To be eligible for the deeper sale discounts, tickets must be booked by June 5th and travel must be completed by June 30th. The sale has no blackout dates and applies to all domestic and international routes. Sale tickets should be booked three days or more in advance. No minimum stay is required. No weekend stay is required, but a Saturday night stay will get the deepest discounts. Priceline.com savings of up to 50 percent - or more - are calculated based on normal published retail ticket prices; savings compared to already-discounted airline sale fares or special-promotion Web-only fares may be lower.
“For this limited period, we`re digging even deeper to deliver even bigger savings to our customers,” said Trey Urbahn
, priceline.com`s president, airline services. “So look for the best price you can find, then come to priceline.com and make a lower offer. Remember, the best price is always your price.”
