There are travel sites, and there is Kayak.com.  Where Expedia and Hotwire show you the deals they want you to see, Kayak.com takes a total coverage approach to finding you the cheapest flights.  Kayak scans all the major airlines (and some of the boutique providers) as well as all the major travel services.  If Expedia can get you a better deal on a United flight than United can, Kayak gives you the choice.

Kayak also succeeds in their bare bones, don’t-insult-my-intelligence layout.  Save for the familiar google text ads on the right column, there are no ads, no flashy promotions, there aren’t even any pictures of palm trees.  Just a solid search tool, great filtering options, awesome results.  Where Travelocity is travel 1.0, Kayak.com is a revolution in “MetaTravel”.
