Book now or wait

[ryleesmom]

My husband surprised me on Mother's Day by telling me he is taking me to Disney for my 30th birthday. My question is, we are not going until the end of September, so SW has not opened those dates yet, but the price is running about $348 for 2 tickets. AirTran has good arrival and departure times already available for $398. Would you book now, or wait until later?
By the way we are flying out of BWI and only going for 4 days, so I want to max. the time we are there.
Thanks

I would buy them.

I bought my Sept tix on April 1. I bout them at $99 each way instead of waiting for the $79 (or sometimes even $59) fares. The same exact flights are now $187 & $152=$340 r/t + tax. (PHL-MCO on AirTran)

The $ you are talking about is about $200 per person round trip right? I think that is a reasonable fare. Not great but good. My feeling is that, unless something majorly changes, fares are only going to go up. Plus you are only 4 months out, don't you want to just be done with it & not have to worry?

Good Luck!
