One of my very favorite Web services, Yapta, today announced a Firefox add-on, which is good news for Linux and Mac users, as Yapta has heretofore been IE-only.
For those who aren't familiar with it, Yapta tracks plane fares for you before or after you've bought your ticket. When Yapta e-mails you to report a price dip, that's your chance to either pull the trigger on cheap tix or ask the airline to refund the difference if you've already shelled out. I used Yapta to get some money back for a flight I took last summer, and I'm now waiting for Yapta to let me know when the fare on my Christmas flight drops so I can get another refund or voucher.
This service works great, and it's an easy way to save some cash. Yapta claims to have already delivered $10 million in airfare value (I'm assuming that's money saved plus refunds). You can find out more about it from my earlier Yapta post.
