Non-stop to venice
We are traveling to Italy in Oct, 2003 and need a nonstop flight from Jfk to Venice.
When would be the best time to purchace tickets at the best price. The lowest price that I have gotten so far is $782 RT. Need your expert advice.

I have been checking fares lately and am going to Italy late september/october.I am not sure if there are direct flights from JFK to Venice, What I do know is there is a consolidator fare from JFK to Milan for $436 traveling in October on Alitalia.It is easy to take a train to venice is 2.5 hr from cental station plus 1 hr to get to the central station.But fare is great,even If you do fly into Venice it takes one hour or so by boat or bus to get to Venice.

Delta does fly non-stop JFK to Venice. Since your flight isn't until October you could certainly sit tight and wait for fares to come down. They will, but not for a while yet (the fall sales generally are posted towards the end of summer, if memory serves). I fly to Italy in the fall pretty frequently, and have always gotten a better fare than the one you're looking at. It all depends on how much uncertainty you can stand, and how much you're willing to pay to have the tickets in your pocket already. I'd recommend waiting.

We flew Delta from JFK to Venice (w/ return from Rome)in late September. Used FF miles accrued on an affinity card. Booked thru the card's travel agent and price was about $650 per as I recall. (That was the cheapest price I had found on Expedia, etc.) Forget when I booked but think it was late Spring.
