Are there certain days of the week that get best air fares? I'm trying to get the young doctor from Prague to here and back this summer without spending three months' wages.
I just told it "price round-trip flights from PRG to either SJC, SFO, or OAK during the month of June for about a week" and it gave me some $1340 options on British Airways (PRG-LHR-SFO). Still definitely not cheap, alas. Asking it for "1 month" stay instead gives similar pricing; there's a slightly cheaper ($1331) Aer Lingus option flying PRG-DUB-SFO with overnights and long layovers each way.
It's worth a try, in any case, since it costs nothing to search. To ask for multiple airports, use "SJC;SFO;OAK" in the destination box. Most of the options I'm seeing are into SFO.
[Disclaimer: I'm going to be working there in less than two weeks, but I liked their software long before I even thought about working there.]
