In NZ, www.houseoftravel.co.nz purports to do this (scrapes fares from many places).

Ozziemuzza,

Have a look at my response in Open Discussion.

The most impartial one I can find is www.fare.net

Cheers

Hi there,

check out http://www.quickfare.com.au

It's an airfare comparison website I've been working on the last year. It covers Australia.

Feedback is welcome.

Emeer, Welcome to AFF!

Looks pretty good. Plugged in some random dates and the results seemed to be correct. Didn't have much luck with return flights though with displaying the fares for the return trip.

Will have to recommend the site to some friends.

If I can make one suggestion, I'd suggest displaying the results in some kind of matrix rather than a drop-down box.

Also, don't forget to add in some Google Ad-words or similar! Can't not make money out of a "free" site!
