airfare for april vacation?

[lopey]

Does anyone know of any cheap airfare for april school vacation? I've been trying southWest but they only have prices until April 1st. Do any of you travel experts have any idea when the rest of the month will be posted?
We are trying to leave from either Boston or Providence RI.
thanks for your help.

We booked back in August or September. We got REALLY cheap airfare from Boston (although lousy flight arrangements). However, we're flying from Boston during NH's school vacation week, so I'd assume prices would be a little lower. Could be wrong though. But our prices, on American are about $176 per person, round trip. Song had some in the really low 200's, which compared to what we could find out of Manchester (cheapest at 350) was really low.
Try Song and Jet Blue. I think they both fly from Boston (could be very wrong though). Just shop around. Try expedia.

I usually go to Expedia, and type what I need. They give prices on many airlines. Then go to the airline's website, that has the price, and times needed.

I don't book on Expedia (they charge a $5.00 fee per ticket)--- just use them for the info.

I've learned over the past 6 years to book for April school vacation at the 331 day mark. Otherwise, you basically have to wait for Southwest to come out with airfare. My friend waited last year for SWA'a airfares to come out and all the cheaper fares were gone in the 10 min she took her kid to the bus stop. My advice, just keep trying. I purchased my airfare at the 331 day mark and I'm flying Song from Boston for $220 rountrip, non-stop.
Good luck!
