I use Google flights to find the best price and then I go to the website or airline directly.
I have credit cards of American airlines and Delta so that I get a free carry-on which saves about $60 or more per trip.
Sometimes American and Delta are not offering competitive prices for the flight that I'm looking at so I'll go with that airline and book directly with them.
Typically I'll set up that rental car through Expedia though.
Sounds like your card isn't very good, I use the Capital One venture and I get two points for each dollar spent and I can redeem the cost of travel whether it's through Expedia or the airlines or Uber and redeem points earned on a one-to-one basis.
There's also an option to get cash back or buy stuff on Amazon but you lose about 30% of the points.
I could probably hook you up with a referral link lol.
I don't plan to buy the tickets soon, as i have almost a year until I plan to travel. I would likely apply for an American card to make the purchase of my flight.

You may want to check to make sure that they don't charge international transaction fees.
But I like flying with American. Using other budget airlines will make you appreciate them lol.
