I have found its almsot the same price to fly non-stop. Kind of no brainer at that point. I went mid-July in '11 and paid about 400 each ticket. I would definitely wait and be more flexible with times. The money you save can buy you a couple more days stay!!!
Problem is that our dates are set. Won't be changing them. The AirTran flight gets into Mobay at 1:40 pm. Later than I would like to arrive on my first day. I will admit that I will pay a little extra to get into Mobay before noon! Waiting to book just kills me!!!!!!!!!!!!
I miss the days that you could get a flight out of O'hare for $250 RT.....then it was worth driving 8 hours to chicago.....
Eco, I also fly out of PVD and watching rates, I have never seen anything below $500pp. $350 would be great! Any specific airline? We like to use US Air miles wise.
This is eye opening. My husband and I will will be seeking flights for the 2015 spring season after using the last of our travel miles for this coming April. We will be traveling from northern CA.
DConkle you fly from SFO? Just keep an eye on the flights also depends on airline and when you fly. Also when you go in spring.
Thanks Angel,normally we would fly out of Sacramento. We will take all the input we can get when we need to book our flights next spring.
Oh well do you sign up for airfare alerts? I will have to check out if airfares are about the same from SFO and Sacramento just curious. Obviously Sacramento is closer for you. Well when you go have fun.
With airlines, no such thing as low season prices. That's a myth. I've been flying to JA in the summer for almost 3 decades. Prices do NOT drop in the summer. In fact, sometimes, usually often, the the opposite is true. I've watched this over the years comparing prices online. Once kids are out of school in the summer, basically June 1st, prices jump. Another myth... closer is cheaper. My northern friends - again, for decades - have paid significantly less than I have from FL. The gap has narrowed a bit the last few years but rarely does someone from "up north" pay more than I do to get to JA.Quote:
