When to book a flight?

[knitmom]

Hi--sorry, but this may seem like a silly question. We have just found out that we WILL be heading to Disney World on October 7th. Can anyone tell me when is the "best" time to book our airfare? We would really like to fly JetBlue(going from Boston to Orlando), but Southwest is running for our second choice(Prov. to Orl). We are a family of 4, & want a direct flight for the kids first time on a plane.

At the moment, JetBlue is ~$129-149/pp.

Thanks!

There is really no "best" time to book your plane reservations. If you see a price now that you think is good I would grab it. Airline prices have been fluctuating, but the general direction for fuel prices is up. Airlines have to pass the added costs to passengers so find a good price and book it.

We also want to fly Jet Blue in October but didn't want to pay the prices! But it was important to us to get the times we wanted so today I caved in and booked. I will check everyday and hopefully they will go down and I will get credit.
I am happy its done and I have the times I wanted now if I can get the price down just a little.
