I'm planning for next April. When is the best time to look for airfare?

That's a good question. I would also like to know the answer to that.

That is quite a ways off. Check airfares now- a good site is kayak.com, plus I read somewhere here in the last day about another new site for checking airfares - check that out to. See what airfares are costing.

I grab airfare when I see something that looks like a good buy - only way to tell is to start watching the market. You need to be comfortable with what you are paying and fits your travel itenary.

'll be flying out of either Parkersburg (20 Minutes from home) or Charleston (1:15 from home)

I've seen fares from Charleston for $242 RT or Parkersburg $368 RT. Are these fares high for now? Could they come down after summer?

Decide what your budget can handle. Then, watch the airline websites as often as you can. Some use kayak, or orbitz...I like to check out the individual airlines sites. Then, when you see a fare that fits your budget, grab it. With the price of gas nowadays, I think the days of under $150 fares to Orlando are behind us.

Check out www.farecompare.com - you can see what prices have historically been, and sign up for an automatic email alert when the fare drops

Thanks. Looks like right now is a good time to book.
