I mean, their deals are usually respectable, but they're rarely "wow." I don't think I've actually ever booked one. A 5-minute search of flyertalk's mileage run and "hotel deals" section, perhaps with a visit to the airfarewatchdog's "top 50 airfares," will invariably yield better savings.

Sure, they add that this is no guarantee to be included, but c'mon. If it's great deal A that comes with 10K$ versus an equivalent great deal B that comes with nada, which is going to make the list?
