estimated number of options outstanding. The transaction value
further includes the offer price of $16.50 less $11.805, which is
the exercise price of outstanding warrants, multiplied by
1,626,426, the number of warrants outstanding.

This Amendment No. 1 (the "Amendment") amends and supplements the
Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (the "Schedule TO"), filed initially
with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 24, 2001 by
Diamondhead Acquisition Corporation (the "Purchaser"), a Delaware
corporation, and Cendant Corporation ("Parent"), a Delaware corporation,
relating to the third-party tender offer by the Purchaser to purchase all
issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share
(the "Shares"), of Cheap Tickets, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), at $16.50 per share net to the seller in cash, upon the terms
and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated
August 23, 2001 and filed as Exhibit (a)(1)(A) to the Schedule TO (the
"Offer to Purchase") and in the related Letter of Transmittal (which,
together with the Offer to Purchase and any amendments or supplements
thereto, collectively constitute the "Offer"). Capitalized terms used and
not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms
in the Offer to Purchase or in the Schedule TO.
Item 12. Exhibits.
The Offer to Purchase is hereby amended by restating the last
paragraph of the section entitled "14. CERTAIN CONDITIONS OF THE OFFER" to
read in its entirety as follows:

the Purchaser, may be asserted by Parent or the Purchaser regardless of the
circumstances giving rise to such condition, and may be waived by Parent or
the Purchaser in whole or in part at any time and from time to time prior
to the Expiration Date and in the sole discretion of Parent or the
Purchaser, subject in each case to the terms of the Merger Agreement. The
failure by Parent or the Purchaser at any time to exercise any of the
foregoing rights will not be deemed a waiver of any such right and, each
such right shall be deemed an ongoing right which may be asserted at any
time and from time to time prior to the Expiration Date."
