airfare from phl to st paul
 
I am looking for a flight between phl and st paul next august. I have found a flight on American Airlines for $238.90 per person-one way.

do you think I should book it or wait?
Thanks
Melissa

It's a decent fare. But how sure are you that you want to fly on that particular day at that particular time 10 months in advance?

Tickets are non-refundable, and you'll have to pay a fee to change flights. The actual flight schedule is also highly likely to be changed, so a reasonable layover on the current itinerary may become unacceptable later on.

Melissa...I would wait.FWIW, Midwest Airlines has a fare of $170.90, one way thru Milwaukee.

we have booked a cruise on the american queen that leaves that night, so we really don't have much choice.
we will be driving back to nj from st louis for 10 days so I really don't want to use my husband's vacation time in St Paul . we feel that it would be easier to fly in that day and then just go to the dock ,rather than come in earlier.

I just checked midwest airlines.
they don't fly to st paul.

OK I guess I have missed something here....St Paul, Minnesota? That would be served by Minneapolis, as in Minneapolis-St Paul....Did you find "St Paul" listed on aa.com?

Sure it does. The Aiport for St. Paul, MN is Minnesapolis-St. Paul, or MSP for short.
