    So I've decided time is of the essence on my next trip in April and I don't want to play the nonrev lotto for one of my trip segments.
    I've searched to no avail on the www for airline or airfare consolidators in the USA (California preferably) but can find them in nearly every other country. Either they do things differently stateside, or they work/operate under a different name.

    Does anyone know where I can find a list of reliable, trustworthy airline or airfare consolidators/wholesalers/brokers so I can check out the fares available (or at least get a general idea of what they're charging) in the U.S.? I'm looking for travel to NE Asia from probably the West Coast.

    Cheers.

    Al this might not be exactly what you're looking for but I read an article at CNN-Travel that mentioned Do Hop as a great travel search engine...and Al, it's FREE! Hope it helps.

    I don't think you'll find what you're looking for. As far as I know no such thing exists here. From what I know anything that calls itself 'bucket' here in the US is nothing more than a travel web site that attaches itself to someone elses booking and search engine in much the same way an airline sells hotels, car rentals and cruises.

    Oh Dear. Quelle Horreur. How embarassment. Found a bluddy good fare. USD500.00 return SFO-PEK. Found it quite by accident - at work of places - it's a web special currently on offer on our web site.
