Holy airfare!

Guess I should stop complaining about how much I paid for airfare. When Southwest first released their dates for October I booked and paid $319 a person, round trip. Those same flights would now cost $519 each!!!

So I'm thinking hoping for them to drop is pretty pointless. But still, there is no way I would have paid $519. Glad I listened to my nephew and booked.

We booked a trip for May at double what I paid in February, but still very cheap. I was still worried and wondering if I should have waited thinking it might have gone back down, but it doubled yet again so I know I made the right choice. All in all we still got a great rate, but since I'm planning to go on at least 3 separate small trips this year I have to keep it as cheap as possible.

Now, I just have to remind myself to stop looking because if I see the prices drop lower than what I paid it's only going to upset me. No point worrying about it now.

For the 1st time in over 10 years we are not going to fly Southwest--The prices are crazy!!
I bought Non-stop airfare with Frontier Airlines and even though they made me pay for each little thing,
check bag, seating ect.,it still only cost me $262 RT with SW Non-stop it was going to cost around $550 RT.
Plus, I was surprised about the arrival times with Frontier are better than the SW times.

So where are you Flying from & to where. ?

I could say that I am paying € 600 ( Euros ) per person but what I did not mention is that Fare is from

Dublin Ireland but it might have been from Amsterdam ( which is 50 Euros extra )

I'm flying from Grand Rapids Michigan. The highest I have ever paid before is $260 a person. $319 seemed high, $519 is ridiculous.

I found a SWA sale on nonstop flights from DAL-MCO. 5,800 points round trip for TWO people. That's right, 5800 points total! This is the whole reason we are going in May. LOL

My flight prices for June just dropped by almost half today, at a peak time of year....just 8 weeks out. I would not discount them dropping for your trip I was pleased to get back about 10,000 points today!
