YOU, yes you, are your own best travel agent.  Even the best agent does not
have time to check out each inquiry for the best fare; they use their
experience to guess at the best deal which is constantly changing.
Two things work;
1) Call the airlines and see who is cheapest yourself.  Of coarse, you have
to call all except Delta twice because they don't agree with themselves.
2) Go to several travel agents and shop for the best deal.  This usually
takes longer than doing it yourself.
