Get money back if your airfare decreases!
This is a potentially really cool <a href="http://www.techcrunch.com/2007/04/24/ya ... ite</b></a>, and it can put money in your pocket (from TechCrunch.com):
"In beta testing with 275 users over the last several months, Yapta found that 34% of purchased tickets became eligible for a refund. The average refund was 16% of the ticket price, or $85. During the beta period that worked out to a total of $28,900 in aggregate potential refunds, or about $100 per beta user. If Yapta can successfully tap into this refund pool and get a share, the numbers look good. More importantly, this is a great service for consumers, who rarely even bother to check for price drops. Users can also use just this feature of Yapta by entering in the flight information on the Yapta site - they are not required to use the Yapta service for research or buying beforehand. For a lot of users, just this one aspect of the service will be very compelling."
