Need Airfare Advice

[Duchie]

Can anyone help me with some advice?

Our next trip to WDW is planned for the week after Thanksgiving. I made the ressies for 11/28, forgetting that this will be the busiest travel day of the year (duh!!!) I realize we can save money on tickets by traveling on Saturday, so we might consider that.

Currently tickets for that weekend are currently anywhere from $350 to $397 for Sunday travel. OWIE!!!!! I've been monitoring ticket prices and any of the really good sale prices weren't good for traveling that weekend.

So the question? Will airfare tickets drop between now and then? Is there anyone out there in the travel industry that is familiar with trends? So with the increasing prices of gas, will the airlines be raising or lowering prices for Thanksgiving weekend?

I know I might as well be asking someone to consult their crystal ball or their 8-ball for answers, but I figured it doesn't hurt to ask. Any input is welcome!!!!!!

That SUnday is the HARDEST day to get a discount for. If you can change to Saturday I would. You might do better. That said, I normally fly from Boston to Nashville that day and the airfares have not been good the last few years.

We've found the very best fares to be on the Friday after Thanksgiving. In our case, the "savings" more than paid for the extra days of car rental and lodging. Check it out - if you ar going to change anyway.
