when to buy easter airfare?

[ADisneyQueen]

We want to go the week before easter from Pitts. I have found airfare for $250. Is this a good price for the holiday week? we've never had to pay that much but maybe that's the best we'll find. Should I wait?

Sounds high to me, but we don't travel a lot during the holiday season because the fares are usually too high. What airline are you considering? I would think that SWA would be your best bet farewise, but their schedule for that period is not available yet. Try the website Farecast; they give statistical information on prices during specific time periods.

Waiting for airfare is like playing the stock market! Sometimes you look really smart by waiting, and sometimes, well...not so smart. Sometimes the price will go up, and sometimes it will go down.

Are you a gambler? My opinion is: if you are comfortable with the price now you should book it.
