Only book through the airline directly, and make sure you know their refund/change policy. (For a while Airlines were offering refundable fares across the board, but, I don't think that's the case anymore.)

You can use sites like Google Flights, Orbitz, Kayak, and Expedia to get a sense of what airlines do the routes you're looking for and see what you're looking at for price, but you should never actually book through a 3rd party site like that for airlines, IMO. When something goes wrong with a flight, you want to be able to deal with the airline directly, and utilize their online services on their website. When I book on United.com, for example, and there's a a cancellation or I miss a connection, they often get my itinerary re-booked before I even notice the problem. With a 3rd party site, those hangups are always going to be a pain in the ass.
