Best search engine for flights?

First trip to Europe for our honeymoon, could really use some advice. We are trying to book our flight to Spain from Minneapolis. Return flight will be from either Spain or Portugal. What are the best search engines to find inexpensive open jaw flights?

They are pretty much all the same. And in the end many times the airline directly is your cheapest source.

I agree. Try directly on the airlines' own website. I have had good experiences on www.klm.com using the "Return from / to a different destination" function, and their prices seem fair. If you need more legspace, pay the little extra (I guess ca. USD 100-150) to upgrade yourself to KLM's Economy comfort zone, located in front of Economy class (if any doubt, no I am not employed by this airline, just giving you my personal advice). The meal service is the same as in Economy. Amsterdam is a hazzlefree transfer airport -all under one roof in one terminal. Avoid Paris CDG. happy travel!

Kate, You might try This Website as it's very user friendly, and the search results can be displayed in several ways. I often use it to research flight options, and then check these against the airline websites. As this is your first trip to Europe, I'd highly recommend reading Europe Through The Back Door prior to your trip, as it will provide a LOT of good information on how to "travel well" in Europe. Congratulations and happy travels!
