Agree with clearing cookies but do you think signing up for fare alerts with kayak, yapta, and hipmunk still does the same thing? I am trying to find reasonable flights from Midwest to Rome for next June. Most everything is $1700+ or has a terrible schedule. I am hoping it drops some soon. Any thoughts as to a time of year it will drop for next year? I know sometimes there are sales on holiday weekends. I have not bought tickets for Europe before so new territory.
