I am looking for quick 3 day getaway right after Xmas. Before Momondo.com re-did their website they used to have a feature where you could enter in the days you wanted to travel, and your departure airport and they would show you the cheapest places to travel.

Is there another site that has this feature?

can you get good deals by going down to the airports and talking to those travel kiosks where they have their weekly specials written in sharpie?
