British Airways...when to book???
I've been stalking a Boston - Greece ( 2 different cities) flight on British Airways for about a month now - price hovers around $850 for late August travel, early September. Any chance it will go lower?? I was also stalking a Boston - Palma (Majorca) and I saw it fall from $900 to $700. Am wondering if I should wait. I got the same flight at year for $670 on Swiss - same week...but at the time the euro was weaker. Given the exchange rate, price s the same as last year.
Haven't flown BA in 15 years - last time, they changed my flight at the last minute, causing great inconvenience and they were not very accommodating. How is their customer service these days? The alternate flights are Lufthansa, Swiss, and Air France.

any and all airlines change schedules/cancel flights. BA is as good or better than any others.
Mere mortals can't win the 'when to book' game. Airlines run VERY sophisticated algorithms to set fares. Best advice is when you find a fare you can live with, book it and then don't look back.
