Help i screwed up (airline ticket)

[mistysue]

Can you look at the seating map for the flight? See how many seats are available?

This happened to me back I think in late January/ early February. Our airtran flight was in the $80's. Last year I bought them for $99 and then it went to $69- so I was going to wait a bit. Well, one morning I went and looked at it was over $400 EACH per way. I started completely panicking and everybody was just saying how I should book it before it goes up more- I am REALLY glad I didn't do that.

I waited a week or so and it did go back down to $109 - so I booked it and today it is $100 to go and $94 to come back.

You probably have time to wait it out.

I don't have to be on the same flight as my SIL, except for the fact that she thinks that i already booked it! I was looking at Airtran and the outgoing flight might work, but the one coming back is way different. I can always split the booking to save money, fly AT out and Spirit back! We are flying out of AC, so i think that they are our only choices.

I don't think i should bother booking right now with prices that high. Although thinking that i have tons of time to book the tickets is what got me in to this mess in the first place.

Thanks for all the advice and keep it coming, if you can think of anything else to try!

This must be my lucky day! I just looked on Spirit and the out going flight has dropped from $143 a person OW to $77! The in coming flight is still $153. Do i book a one way and book the other when that comes down or do i play the game of chance????

Ok i couldn't take it i went ahead and at least got our one way ticket to Florida.

Now i only have to worry about the flight coming home and well lets all be honest being stuck in Florida isn't the worst thing that could happen!
