Will tickets for summer trip likely go up or down?
How much longer can I risk waiting to buy a ticket for a July trip? I have found what I think is a reasonable price, but certainly not a bargain. Does anyone have a sense, from past experience, about when the airlines start raising prices even more for summer fares? Or should a wait a little longer and hope the prices go down. Thanks. PJK

If you believe it is reasonable buy it. The peak summer travel is July. Rarely do you find bargins for July With fuel prices going up and good travel demand, I doubt if you will much reduction. Bargains come in the winter.

As one very erudite Fodorite once said, "The prices will go up, right before they start going down again."
You never know, but I've never met a summer price that went down significantly. If you're comfortable with the price now, buy it, and don't look back.
