UK traveller: JFK-MCO return at Easter $155?
 
I am booking internal USA flights for our trip to the USA next Easter. Can anyone confirm that $155.20 return JFK to MCO with Delta/Song (Easter Sunday April 3rd to 11th) is a reasonable price? Unfortunately we can't use Hotwire or Priceline as we need to be back at JFK by a certain time for our flight home to London. Am I right in assuming that these prices are only likely to increase if I leave it later to book? Thanks.

That's a good fare. Considering that your only other non-stop from JFK is the low-cost airline Jetblue, and Jetblue's fare is $175 (including tax).

I doubt you'll see fares much lower than $155, so if your dates are certain, go ahead and book it.

That is an EXCELLENT rate, book it now.

If it's only $20 more, I would highly recommend Jetblue, as the seats are much more comfortable than on Song.

Easter Sunday is on March 27th next year, not April 3rd.

It's a great price. Your chances of finding it for significantly less are close to nil. If it meets your needs, book it before it goes away for good.

Thanks everyone for the quick responses. I couldn't book via the Delta Airlines website as they needed a US credit card billing address but I called their UK number and paid over the telephone: GBP £84.80 per return ticket equivalent to US $151.84. Thanks again.
