Where are you seeing $1000? I just looked on google flights and the cheapest option was $627. If you come back on 1/3 the cheapest flight is $449.

I thought airfare would be back down by now with people getting their "revenge travel" done but there is so much money sloshing around I think it may take a severe recession to get things closer to normal.
ETA: If you are traveling over the holidays you might as well book now.

All show $1000 for those dates. The flight also needs to be non-stop. Only heathens fly with stops on domestic flights.
American Airlines shows a nonstop flight for $685 returning 1/2. If you come back on 1/3, its $560 nonstop with American Airlines. Look on google flights, not expedia.PlanoAg98 said:united.comQuote:

another hack I've been using with good success; book the cheapest flight of the day (or day before or after)AgOutsideAustin said:
Book all flights when you have your trip locked in then monitor it for a price drop. Planes are stuffed, routes being cut, prices aren't going down.

If and inevitably when that itinerary changes, you can swap to the flight you really want without paying the increase in fare.
But, you have to be prepared to actually take the flight you book, but I've done this 3-4 times in the last ~2 years, and it always gets changed so I can swap.
Just cancel and rebook, not sure why you'd need to ***** out anyone. If you'd like, you can call and they can do the same thing over the phone. I'd suggest waiting to ***** them out, though, as that tends to make people less likely to help you.E said:
Speaking of high airline prices, we are flying from Houston to Rio in mid July for 6 days... very high price for the ticket.
I looked just now, and it is about $500 cheaper. If I call and ***** out United will they credit me the difference or should I just cancel my tickets and rebook?
