PLCs shall use standard airfare search sites to determine the lowest logical
fare. Any widely-recognized airfare search site that lists results from
multiple airlines is acceptable, including sites such as

http://hipmunk.com/[Hipmunk]. The PLCs and/or the traveler must submit the
output (such as a screenshot or printout from the browser) of a online fare

on a different site as long as they used a qualifying fare search site to
determine that the booked flights are within Policy.
