I've used Hipmunk several times. The interface is fantastic. The ipad app is also great.
It does immensely suck that you leave Hipmunk to actually buy the tickets. I had to redo my entire search and purchase because the Safari view of Delta's website in the ipad Hipmunk app crashed.
I also had to recently buy my cross-country Christmas tickets through Expedia. For whatever reason Expedia had far, far better selection and prices. Usually Hipmunk is great but in this case it wasn't even close. That's definitely made me slightly wary of it for the future.
All things said it's great. Can't wait to see where it is in a few more years.
