frustrated with airfare

Last week, I found airfare from Boston to London then to Venice and return from Naples to London to Boston for $657 with Virgin Atlantic at onetravel.com. Unfortunately I hesitated and didn't book it. It's now up to $710 for the same flight. I'm wondering if I should book that flight before it gets any higher or wait and hope prices drop. Need your opinions. I will be leaving September 19.
What are some other sites/sources that you have used for cheap airfare?

Thanks,
Crystal

Personally, I think the chances of airfare dropping for that time is slim to none. You've already learned your lesson. I would take it now while you can.

Just heard minutes ago on the news that airlines are beginning to raise prices because of the high cost of fuel. I would jump on what you can find right now.

Check as many reputable sights (inluding the airlines own site) as you can without driving yourself insane and when you find a price you can live with, book it.

Try orbitz, travelocity, expedia, and flycheap.com. Look for 'deals' on virgin's website and travelzoo.com

Good luck!

In looking over all the posts you have started about this airfare, I think you've studied it pretty exhaustively, and now you just need to quit agonizing over a few dollars and book your flights!
