Air Fares

I am so thankful that I booked us over a month ago (from Toronto to MBJ) to travel in January.
Watched a TV news item recently on air fares going up now because of high demand. They say economy is getting better.
My airline sent an e-mail today saying the flight will now leave an hour and 15 minutes later than booked so I decided to check the on line price of that flight today.
Guess what, the return fare for two that I booked is now up by over 500 dollars! 1790 vs the 1260 I paid.
Demand = $$$

1790? Where you flying from?

I just checked my dates on west jet from YYZ to Montego bay. For all you americans YYZ is Torontos airport code made famous as the title of a Rush song. Thursday nov 28th to sunday dec 8th. Thats my target, still waiting for wifes vacation approval. :( The price for 4 of us was $2565. Could have saved $400 more by going home one day earlier on the 7th.

me-personally,
don't fret over spilt-milk

once i book,
'tis DONE --- FINISH-ed

NO looking over shoulder

I'm GO-ing ---- end of $tory

AND:::>> for this trip,
i book-ed the earliest, i've ever booked

so-so glad i did.

I *think* i lost 10-pounds worth of '..worry-ing..'

feeling light as a feather

Mr. Smith; you were smart. Things going up now, not down. Unless, of course, people don't fall for their reasoning and wait!

Striper. Flying from Toronto. Could have flown from Buffalo but no direct flights and smaller planes. I like the Air Canada 767 with two seat not three together.

no-biggie:::::>>> to feel-better(?), *they* can do the "..sour grapes.." ... shouda-coulda-woulda thing-y, and/or chalk it up to a '..lesson learned..'

LOL Smith744!

WestJet vacations flight + hotel + transfer for 2 = $1315 taxes included YYZ to samsara . Booked thru sears travel, 4 more sleeps soon come Cheers! Red Stripes at Seastar for Monday night football priceless

Used my airmiles this year...3 people...$600 :)

Hey You will work lol how are you smith??..happy thanksgiving

canuk cpl. That's a great deal. Our first trip to Negril in 1998 was just over 1200 for air, transfers to Samsara and a 25 dollar bar credit for the week booked through Sears.
You wouldn't get that deal for January though and that's when we travel.

Ya mon this is our first fall trip we are Feb. visitors, but had some time off and couldn't pass up the deal so we get two trips this year. Cheers!

We paid $485 last year non stop out of Detroit, this year we paid almost $800.

Love YYZ and everything Rush!!!!!
