I am happy to use random OTAs for cheap short-hauls that are for next week or so that I am definitely taking / happy to lose the money if something unexpected comes up.
Long hauls I will only use Expedia or Amex Travel and only if there is some reason I don’t want to book it direct (e.g. the airline website sucks or has odd fees). I would use a physical travel agent if they charge the same price as google says the airline is meant to charge
