We are using miles to flyfrom Dallas to Tampa for our cruise in June. Just found return flights for $164/pp (inc tax). Last yr we got roundtrip for $235/pp......don't know if I should snag the $164 ones now, or wait, in hopes the $$ goes down.

What would you do?
 
The airlines announced not that long ago that they were increasing fares and cutting routes and from what I've seen they meant it.
For our trip to the USVI in November 2010 we paid $340 a ticket, for our July 2011 trip $530(much more than we've EVER paid to fly to the VI and we've been countless time)...for our January 2010 Disney trip we paid $188 a ticket and for our January 2012 trip I just bought at $244 a ticket last week. And FWIW, those are all flying out of/flying into the same airports.
$164 seems a bit high, but I would say that if you can deal with it, go ahead and buy it. For me, if it's airfare I'm happy with I just go ahead and buy.
 
I haven't seen anything anywhere near what we paid last year to go to MCO from Baltimore. It's about $40 more than last year.
