What is a good price for airfare??

[square pond]

Hi I don't have much experiance in booking flights and what a good price would be?? I was wondering if I could get some opinions on what a good price for a round trip ticket from Boston to Orlando on April 8 to return April 24th. I don't want to jump in too soon and miss any good deals that might pop up.

Generally speaking, I would say anything under $200 (RT) is a good fare from BOS to MCO. Since I fly out of BDL, my choices are somewhat limited to Delta (Song) and Southwest for the best fares and most direct (non-stop) service. I believe you have those airline
choices, along with JetBlue to check for the lowest fares. Fares right
now for the April timeframe are what I would consider non competitive, meaning at the high-end. I would check all three airlines beginning in October/November to start "benchmarking" prices. Good luck!

For me, anything below $200 RT is a good buy. If you watch for sales you could probably do even better, depending on what airlines you have available in your area. (ie. spirit, song, jetblue, southwest...)

Have you tried www.JetBlue.com out of Logan? Their fares to MCO are generally $99 or less. I would keep an eye on fares out of providence or manchester as you can get cheap flights ($49-$79) with SWA as well. Be patient - SWA generally comes out with fares foillowed with Song soon after.
