Should I switch?

We are looking to go to WDW this year. We were thinking of leaving on Sun after Tgiving. Right now prices are 382, and yes I know it is early. However if we leave on Friday (the day after) instead prices drop by over 100pp.

I just wondered if anyone could tell me about what they paid for this same time of year? Also, if you have anysight as to why Friday is cheaper than Sun for that weekend.....I'd love to hear it.

Should I switch to Friday or just wait for Sun?

People are returning home from Thanksgiving weekend on Sun. Friday is after T'giving and too early to want to go home. But Friday flights will get scarce, too. Sunday flights typically just go higher.

Yep. That Sunday is the busiest travel day of the year - or at least has been, the last couple of years; busier even than the day before Thanksgiving, because people tend to be more flexible on their outbound trip, especially with all the attention in recent years toward HOW busy the airports are that Wednesday.

You know what might even be better? Thanksgiving itself. It's one of the least busy travel days.
