Best place for international airfare?
I need to find a decent deal on a flight from Auckland, NZ to Jacksonville, FL departing on Jan 10 and returning on like..the 26th or so. Any ideas on the best place to look? No need for a hotel or anything like that, just the ticket.

I would say orbitz, ask juls how she got to denmark NP!
Orbitz had higher prices than most of the places I checked - I appreciate your smart assed quick witted response, Dylan, but if I was coming here to ask some kid for his insight on how to use the internet, I would have just PM'd you.
Instead, though, I made a post addressing a large amount of generally helpful people with varying careers who might actually be able to provide some half-intelligent insight on places I wouldn't think to look.

well, that's the thing though - neither is my local airport >.< and it's for someone coming FROM NZ, not going to, if that makes a difference.

There something we should know about? *wink wink* *nudge nudge*
In all seriousness, try Travelocity and Priceline, and compare the prices you get from them to the price you get by going to the actual website of the airline you want to use themselves. The airlines have actually gotten wise and frequently you can get better deals by going to them directly, if all you're doing is getting a flight. I have no clue who the NZ national carrier is, Australia is Quantas, so you could try them, or one of the usual big vendors: United, Delta, etc.

this is the best one I can find so far.
NZ is Qantas as well.

http://travel.travelocity.com/flights/A ... 6351152006 is $10 cheaper, for whatever that might be worth. At that price range though, 10 bucks is a drop in the bucket.
Honestly, finding flights from NZ is a pain in the ass. You might try going through an actual travel agent as well.
