If the price is good, then grab it now. But...are you sure your travel plans won't change/cancel? If it's a go, then get the ticket.

My plans won't change to the point they affect my arrival or departure date, but good point Jaya. Now I may have to tweak it to coordinate with the 450 school children. (That nonsensical comment is for Marija.)

Thanks for the price range, Rhkmk.

1 Day New Delhi, day after arrival and city tour
5-6 nts Kanha
4-5 nts Bandhavgarh
(10 nts total to optimize the chance to see a tiger)
2 Agra and Taj Mahal with early morning arrival by train enroute from Bandhavgarh to Corbett
4 nts Corbett (Bijrani & Dhikala zones)

Transportation is by train and road.

You might as well book it now. For my last few trips (including my upcoming flight to Bangalore)I booked 11 months in advance and watched the ticket prices. They rose by a fraction (less than $100 overall) but definitely no reductions.
