I'll have two weeks in France next April. I will fly from Paris in the second half to Bastia. The cheapest airfare is $239 RT. I was hoping to be around $150. Not sure whether $239 is fair or I should keep watching. My dates are not flexible. any recent experience out there?

According to www.skyscanner.com, you could find a round trip for as little as $100 US (plus the inevitable extra fees) if you can get up deplorably early in the morning and be able to adjust your days of travel. You say your dates are not flexible but don't say what they are, so I can't help much more than that.

Skyscanner has the same prices I found. Dates are April 22-26, firm.

Do you want to stay at Bastia all the time?
If not, fly with easyjet to Ajaccio (either very early in the morning or the evening before) and back from Bastia.

Too early to look for fares next April.

If you are locked into those dates, possibly by a special event, then you are locked into those prices, possibly the consequence of high demand. But you can follow Kerouac's advice and perhaps wait to January to see what the new year might bring.

Price dropped to $176 RT which includes checked bag. Doesn't seem bad.
