As an internet-travel-booking-novice I would appreciate some suggestions
on
how to go about booking both UK - US return flight and internal US
flights.

Early December, four of us need to travel to New York, on to Tampa, then
North Carolina and maybe Buffalo before returning via New York after
10 -
14
days.

Is it best doing it all with the same airline? Any carrier recommended?
Or
should I let some agent (eg: Airline Network?) take the strain and do
it
for me?

Similarly, any tips on booking (3*?) hotels at these places please?

I guess this all sounds elementary to seasoned keyboard travellers, but
we
all have to start somewhere........!


At the very least get some prices from a reputable travel agent
as a sanity check. Personally I usually book my flights to the US
and my internal flights with trailfinders

We used Jetblue when we went to USA for internal flights. Good, cheap air
transport. Always on time.

For the UK-US leg try all of the following for price comparisons

www.airnet.co.uk
www.ebookers.com
www.opodo.co.uk
www.a2btravel.co.uk
www.majortravel.co.uk

I usually book with the cheapest of the above - and there can be quite
a difference between them.

Once you decide on a booking, they may be able to help with the
internal flights at a favourable price.
