My friend showed me this site today and it's one of the cooler things I've seen in awhile. Using data mining, algorithms, and previous flight information it trys to predict whether the price of your flight is likely to rise or fall before your travel date and tells you to buy or wait. Apparently it's right 75% of the time, which I don't think is to bad considering the market for airline tickets is so volatile. It's only in the US market right now but I hope it expands to Canada soon.

Holy crap this sounds like a shill...No, this isn't spam and I'm not affliated. What do you guys think of this idea?

I've tried to use it, but I usually book my tickets too late and i need them right away. Anyone have experience using this; how did it work out??
