A “classic” trick for attempting to circumvent high last-minute “walkup” fares has been to buy a package. Discounters like Site59.com (a subsidiary of Travelocity) are particularly good at this within the U.S. market, though airlines’ own websites increasingly offer good last-minute packages. These air+hotel or air+car packages are often (though not always) cheaper than buying the flight alone.

And, unlike the “opaque” flights offered by Hotwire and Priceline as part of their rock-bottom packages, Site59 and its ilk offer flights that actually earn miles.

Gary Leff recently posted a discount code that makes the last-minute option even cheaper:

$59 off on packages of $700 or more through April 30 with discount code SITE59GETAWAY.
