We sailed the Med in July 2011. We moved an onboard booking to the 10-night sailing (because the pricing was right), but really wanted to sail the 11-night cruise (love sea days). We kept watching airfare (it was around $1100/person from BWI to BCN), knowing we could change sailing dates. In late 2010, around the holidays, my husband found airfare, on the American Airlines website, from BWI thru JFK to BCN and return for just under $700/person. Needless to say, we jumped on it and sailed the 10-night cruise.
Watching for airfare was frustrating, but it definitely worked in our favor. Coincidentally, it was an email from AA advertising a "sale" in a different travel location (probably Carribean) that prompted hubby to check our dates, just out of curiosity.
Good luck in your search - the trip will be awesome and definitely worth the investment.
