What to do?

[FirstTimer]

Ok here's my dilemma. Right now song's fair to MCO from LGA or JFK is $79 one way. It would be more convenient for me to leave from Newark (EWR) which is $134 one way. In the meantime I've been trying to wait for independence air's flights to come out for september but it looks like I've got another month before I can get a quote as they only publish their fares 5 months in advance. So my question is, should I go ahead and book with song from LGA or JFK or should I hold out and wait to see what independence is gonna have to offer from EWR.

My only concern is that while I'm waiting for independence, song's price is gonna increase.

Advice, please.

So far it's looking like I should book now eh

How many people? For more than two people, I'd probably book now. Two or just you, I might be willing to hold out.

3 people, me, dh, and dd-4

I would book right away. The cost of jet fuel is rising just like our gasoline prices, and this will prohibit any lowering of prices for flights in the near future.

I booked our flights for end of November yesterday because I didn't want to chance the wait for SWA flights.

can I book a flight for my trip even though it is not until December with a return flight in January????? so....if I do, they couldn't increase the price on me right???

TIA

we are taking jet blue out of jfk.. when i first looked a few weeks ago it was $59 each way this past sunday it was up to $89 so i booked.. i wouldnt take the chance of passing up such a good fare.. we are going in oct i thought about waiting too but with the gas prices so crazy i cant see it going down again

For JFK to MCO, flying the Fri of Columbus Day weekend, we paid 135.40 round trip/ticket. I have never paid that low of a fare. I booked a few months ago, because I knew that I normally get a fare of 175-200/ticket, and I knew our dates. I also reserved my rental car back then, which was a good move, since my rate for 11 days is 195. for a full size, and it is now up to 335. for the same. Prices may go down, but I was not willing to bank on that possibility. The last time I waited it out, I paid 400/ticket to go during President's week in Feb!
