Have you tried Yahoo's fare chase? I really like it..It quickly figures flights and times and fares for any airport and destination. It quickly figures the least expensive option. Also..I wouldn't worry about where you sit. I have always changed seats around at the gate when we weren't able to assign them as we would like. I've never had a problem with the airline accomodating us to all sit together.

I would book asap. You don't want to get shut out of the flights you want altogether.
Same thing happened to me. Prices are insane. I booked one airline just to have flights (these are cash refundable) and waited on another discount airline to release their dates and prices. They ended up even more money.
So, I am bitting the bullet, paying obsene prices but I have my confirmed flights on an airline that is not known to change their flights or cancel them. Better safe then not flying.

That is pretty much the same as us. We are used to paying much higher prices then many of you in the US. We were lucky to stumble onto a $740 fare- round trip- everything incuded. We booked this in July and we are also going in April. I watch the price go up everyday. It is up to $1300 as of yesterday. I would agree with the above poster book quickly because you don't want to get shut out.

Whatever you do, I would highly advise not to use AirTran. They changed our flight so many times and then shutdown in one airport and moved us to another airport not even close to the last - it was riduculous. All of this while not notifying us. I stumbled upon it myself. I will never even think of flying with them even if the tickets were $50 a piece. The airlines that seem to have the least amount of changes are Southwest and Jet Blue. I am not sure if these fly where you live. Good luck - but don't wait too much longer. Friday, Jet Blue opened through end of April and we booked our trip without hesitation. It is a tough week both $$ wise and finding a non full flight at the times you want.

...was wondering about the same thing too. I got an email from Jetblue that for members their booking is open up until April 2009 as of Sept 5 (not sure if it has now expanded to all) but I was looking for flights for April 09 to Vegas and was kind of wondering if I should be booking now. Even though flights are about $400 r/t. Doesn't seem they will get any better.

We so many airlines cutting flights or going out of business, it is worth the extra $$ to book now on a reliable airline such as Jetblue or SW.

Airtran is our only option that flies nonstop out of Milwaukee. Other option was Midwest airlines who no longer flies direct, has Northwest operating some of their flights and may not be in business in April. I've flown Airtran 3 or 4 times and have never had a schedule change. I could fly out of O'hare or Midway but love the size & convience of Milwaukee. I guess I'll check yahoo fare chase & if things don't change in the next couple of days I may end up just booking it.

You could also try out of Madison, or O'hare too. I just keep looking and looking but SWA out of MIdway has been the least expensive in the area. I also look under each airlines and have an open mind about times, and dates, this will make it less expensive too. There are other Websites that are for the travel industry that you can look up too to help save money.

1) You might reconsider Milwaukee.
2) The gas cost and parking fees at Midway could eat all the savings.
3) As far as booking, usually the earlier the better.
4) Usually, the price does not keep going down.
