I am trying to plan a trip to Australia from Guam. I have been looking for websites that will let me look at available flights and fares. I have been having trouble finding one.

What websites do you know that will help me out. Please note, I want to go to other places as well while I am in this part of the world so I am looking for sites that cover plenty of travel options.

I have luck with Expedia.com for flights, hotels, etc. As for local travel stuff -- there are plenty of Mudcatters in Oz. They are probably your best bet for advice! Or you'll probaly have to find a local site where you are going for ferries, trains and such.

My recent fave for hotels has been Octopus Travel.

I found much better deals through them for my upcoming jaunt to Morocco than Expedia could provide.

And you can also use Orbitz.com which has a pretty good reputation.

Thanks all, I'd have checked this sooner but I lost the thread and had to search for it.

I'll check out these links. Some of them won't calculate flights because my starting place is outside the U.S. And that is incorrect. Guam is very much part of the U.S., it's just a territory.

Well, that was a bust. None of those sites would accept Guam as a starting point for a flight.

Any other suggestions?

Orbitz dot com may have great fares, but they ALSO have THE MOST OBNOXIOUS pop-up ads in the industry.
