Airfares have gone up like $70 in the last day and Bing says to wait, 63% probability they drop. Argghhh.... What do you think? Any experience with the Bing price predictor?

Just put a hold on two tickets out of Detroit that put us in Montego Bay at 1:20pm April 21 and leave on Sun Apr 29 at 7:45am!! $623 a pop, yikes!! If nothing drops by tomorrow, that's our ride!!
Do you HAVE to travel on both Sundays? Any options to go Monday, return Tuesday? Also DTW must have a lot of folks going to MBJ, cuz there are few options open to ya and expensive (I'm looking at Airtran's site). If you could go Monday and return Tuesday, about $436.
PLUS, that's a crummy time to leave , so early in the morning on your return.
Do fares still commonly change 1am Wed mornings?
Good luck!
Woah you are going to have to leave Negril at like 4am on Sunday for that return....yikes!
*Hoping your price comes down a bit, but glad to have you on board!!!!!
That return sucks... How about 4/20 as your departure date?
I hope it all works out Giurigay!! I've got my fingers crossed the prices drop!!:)
I agree that the return flight time isn't ideal, however... it's really hard getting a good return time on a flight leaving on a Sunday.
anybody ever split your purchase of tickets to take advantage of the 1 left price? Will the price I see for 2 tickets still be the same for the second ticket?
Have you tried the airfare matrix website? It's helped me to figure out what days have the best airfare prices and flights.

I think sometimes that is just a teaser to push you onto the button. Call the airline and ask. You can also book your tickets one-way at a time, sometimes you get more flexibility (choices) on the flights.Quote:

You can always roll the dice and wait,but you never know if you'll have seats, Damn Airlines!!!!!!!!
Flight prices are bad right now. Booked a ticket last week for my buddy and paid almost $800 from LAX. WTF, can I at least get a kiss next time?
The cheapest I have found is 436. Out of valgary but that's an 18 hour lay over in Houston.the other one is 12 something and I still have a 4 hour in Toronto..grrrrrrr.
Fortunatly we were able to use the Chase Advantage site, and use some points for flight. Non-stop Chicago to MBJ 527.10, less 253.37 end result 800.83. It used to be around 350.00 to 400.00. Then if you travel around the island Montego Bay to Treasure Beach any you might spend about the price of one plane ticket. It ALL ADDS UP!~ So happy you are still going!
