Default PR high but no results

I currently have a Google page rank of 6 (www.accessfares.com)but currently my site won’t appear in natural results for any of my keywords. I've compared my sites to a successful competitor (www.airawards.com) and my keywords are the same and my density is even better.
Do you think that the gods at Google have punished me?

I think your H1 tag is the culprit. The olor of H1 tag is very similar with its background color due to this reason you may have been penalized for it.

I have also observed that you are using CSS style codes and JavaScript codes in you html page. Place it in 2 diffrent external files and link them in your Html file.

That shouldn't make any difference to Google.
dpowell70, if you say you compared on-page factors and there's no big difference, then you probably should think of off-page factors which means you should get more backlinks especially with anchor text containing your keywords - nowadays it seems to be one of the most important factors.

PR is not really that important when it comes to the ranking of a page.
