should I just book NW instead of waiting for sw

[ptmmg]

I just looked up a flight leaving providence to mco with 1 stop for the six of us it would be $1045 rt. Pretty good I think, plus the airport I prefer although we do have plane changes. I have been waiting for sw to come out with their fares for the last week of August. Just for kicks I plugged in the dates exactly 1 week before our scheduled date and the price wil be $1413.

Am I holding out for a higher price? When sw first puts there fares on line are they cheaper and eventually go up or will these prices 1 week before be a reflection of about what I will pay? Looking at them most are still available they don't seem to be selling many seats!

I would wait a couple more weeks and watch the prices. I checked daily for our flight and finally got them for less than $200 a person non-stop which is good for flying out of BWI. We are going in April and I booked my flight the end of Jan.

But I guess its what you think is best for you and your family for me it was important to get non-stop cause its the first time my children are flying and I just thought it would be better and easier on us.

Hope that helps!
