Airfare from Newark to Cancun in December

Hello,
We are planning our first trip to Cancun in early December. Right now, air fare is around $500, should I wait to book? Will prices go down a little as it gets closer to December? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!! Thank you.

Flying a major airline out of Newark, $500.00 RT is not a bad price. I've seen them $700.oo plus. If you can, check out airfares out of Philadelphia. You'll find that you can save several hundred dollars per ticket -- check on usair.com

Forgot: am assuming that you are including taxes. There is a hefty Mexican departure tax and many other taxes especially since 9/11.

Sixty: We didn't go in December but we did go in June. We paid about $550 (including taxes) Newark>Cancun non-stop with Continental. And about $450 for our toddler. I kept checking the fares until our departure and they didn't go lower than that.
I would think December fares would be more expensive so your fare sounds pretty good to me.

Thank you for all your responses. The air fare with taxes right now is coming up a little over $1200... If it doesn't change in about two weeks, I will book. Thank you!
