We have a party of 6 flying from St. Louis - Orlando in July. Can fly out July 5,6 or 7. Would like to return on the 15th. I am finding $229-249. Is this an alright deal and should I book now, or should I wait to see what will happen?

If you only want non-stop flights, book them now as the fares will not likely go down. If a connection is OK, I'd recommend subscribing to Travelocity's and Expedia's fare tracker emails and watch them for about a month in the hopes that a special will come along, but it's very unlikely that it'll be a non-stop.

You may be able to slightly lower the fare returning on July 14th rather than the 15th. For example, Cheaptickets has TWA non-stops with a 15th return for $233 but it's $213 if you change the return to the 14th. The only outbound flight that seems to come up with this price arrives Orlando at 12:45 a.m. though.

I was hopeing you'd be out there. I'll go ahead and book it then and it will be one thing more off my mind. I thought it was an okay fare but wanted to check first.
