Cheapest airline tickets when buying very few days before the flight?
I need to fly out for a funeral in less than 3 days. I do not have 900 dollars for the 3 passengers that Southwest is requesting. I am flying from San Diego to Oakland/San Francisco. Any suggestions?

JetBlue has always been the cheapest for me. If you're a student, there are student travel agencies who have good deals. If so, Google "STA." Have you considered a bus? They're often a lot cheaper, especially round-trip and are even cheaper between frequently-commuted big cities. I don't know what kind of bus service you have out there, but Greyhound is decent here. Lastly, look at Expedia or Orbitz, those travel agencies you've seen on TV. Sometimes they have last-minute, cheap flights because they're trying to fill in spots for cancelled tickets. Good luck!

Sorry for your loss. I've sifted through my sources, and these are the best I see: http://www.virginamerica.com $136 one-way Aug. 4. If you could go from Long Beach, then try http://www.jetblue.com $124 o/w this Monday morning. If you will need a car there, and could leave tomorrow, then http://us.lastminute.com has 3 together, airfare plus car, for $768 total.
