SW question should I book or wait?

[crazyplanner]

I find these boards very addictive and extremely useful. I have a question and hoping that someone can help me. We are going to Orlando in October and I have been waiting to book the air since is off season but I was in the SW site and the cheaper fares for our return date is already unavailable the cheaper ones that are left are "fun fares" ...my question is should I book now or wait ...but would they open up those fares again? What is your experience so far? We are leaving out of BUFF.


Thanks so much.

and excited at the same time!!!!

I'm in the same boat as you. We're going sept 21- oct. 1st. Right now the prices we are getting are $402 roundtrip for two. Compared to Toronto that is AMAZING but last year we paid a lot less. I'm going to wait. Last year aroung Aug. better fares came out and if by that time it doesn't change much than I'll book. It's way too early right now.

Hope that helps!!

If you are flying off season are are fairly flexible with the times you want to fly, then wait, I have always gotten a great rate (through a ding) if I can be slightly flexible, If you have specific times you need to go, then book it and when a cheaper fare or a ding comes along, then cancel and rebook and you will get credit to use another time
OH and in my experience, the fares do open up at different times, keep watching the web site !!
