We had Delta vouchers that expired on 6/1/03 and with 2 weeks left, we thought they were going to be wasted. Delta flights from MSP to MCO have been running well over $300/rt.
I checked the prices and suddenly they had dropped to $207.50, I quickly called and put a hold on them. They are now back up well over $300 for our trip.
Delta often runs these 1 day sales and the only way to catch them sometimes is to check daily or a couple of times a day. In this case, my Travelocity fare watcher didn't even catch the lower price.
I was talking to the reservationist at Delta and he also commented on how good the 207.50 price out of MSP was. Although I've paid as little as $98/rt on Delta during a 1 day sale right after 9/11, the person at Delta seemed to think that the "super sales" may be gone forever and getting low $200 out of MSP may be as good as we ever get.
