    I checked and their prices were no better than anywhere else. However despite saying that, I have many times in the past searched 4 sites and often one is cheaper than the rest - but it is never the same one twice!

    They can’t because they link to OTAs with stagnant prices, they won’t improve this because they make money out of such OTAs.

  • I have used Expedia for some time, both for hotel before flying and flights. More recentlye I have dome this through TopCashBack (for obvious reasons) and the link with Expedia then gives my Expedia points and Nectar points as well.

    There's a difference between promoting and recommending a site. I've never heard of the site you're promoting and looking at it I certainly wouldn't recommend it to anyone. You've not even bothered to update airline logos with their current IATA codes as I'm getting what looks like results for BMI Baby, an airline that ceased operating many years ago!
