Okay, I really need your help...
I'm planning a trip for my family of 5 for the end of August (August 25th-September 1st).
I live on Long Island, so I can fly from Islip, JFK, or LGA. (Would LOVE Islip.. but that's flexible!)
So, just the truth here, the only other time I planned this trip for the same time frame was two years ago, and I just went to the AAA travel site, and found $59 tickets for Delta Song! (I knew that was a good deal, but I guess I didn't realize HOW good it was!!!)
Now I'm going through sticker shock with the fares I see!!
I know SW is supposed to be great, but I don't know when their dates will open for my time frame... Also, I watched it recently when they opened, and the first two tiers of pricing for the Saturday before were "unavailable" when I checked about an hour after they opened the dates!!! Now, I'm not so comfortable waiting for them.
I've put a fare finder for one of the travel sites, (Orbitz), for my time frame, and asked for RT tickets for $199 or less.....
So, am I crazy to hope for this fare??
Any advise?
