Default Cheap airline tickets

I have been trying to find some good prices on airline tickets for an upcoming trip at the end of Oct.
About the best price I have come across was like $450.00 (from Greenville/Spartanburg SC to Rochester NY). This seems awfully high.
Are there some sites you guys have found good deals on?

I really don't mind which airline price is a lot more important to me at this point.
269.00 is a lot better than $450

I just checked briefly at Southwest and didn't see the cities you were looking for, but I just paid $179 for a round trip of direct flights to and from San Antonio-Philadelphia. They have lots of $79-99 one way flights that make them cheap.

What days are you needing to travel? I found a non-stop round trip from ATL-ROC on Delta Airlines from $193; $224 after taxes and fees.

Go to http://www.delta.com and enter that criteria. From ATL to ROC and your dates. There is a round trip non-stop flight for $188; $209 after taxes.

Yea, check out Delta or Southwest or American Airlines, they seem to usually be cheapest. I just flew to CA from MI a couple months ago and ended up paying $270 for a trip that 5 years ago I used to only pay $180, prices sure have gone up. Check Travelocity.com, find the best rate, then goto that particular airlines website and buy from them, usually saves an extra $10.
