I went on line to Delta this afternoon to see if there were any seats left on my flight down & found that the price dropped like $50 same flight down, connecting flight back. So I called Delta to see if I could Change my tickets, well I couldn't because they charge $100 [img]graemlins/pout.gif[/img] to change a reservation, but they checked to see if my flight had come down in $$$ & it did. $3.00 more than the one I wanted to change to, so they hooked me up with a voucher for the diff. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img] I can use this when I go in January with a friend. I couldn't believe the price drop. I have been watching prices for monthes & did not expect it to go down but up.

When are you going - flying out of Logan? I've been watching and saw it go up $20. now it's back to where it was last month $171 - 175. I have see as low as $135 however of course it's not our travel period. We paid $130ish price in Feb. Now with 5 of us going the end of Sept. we are being more price conscious.

Thanks

Im glad that I came to this thread! I was thinking about bumping up my vacation a week in advance but now that I see that Delta charges 100.00 Im not so sure I will do it now! But yay for you in getting a price drop! More money for Mickey Bars!

Yeah Mickeybars & Dole Whips. [img]graemlins/yuma.gif[/img] maybe become a Pin Collector. The weird thing is, when I go on liento look @ prices my original flight is more then what I originally paid,even on the same day I called them & got a Lower price. Whats with that? But there was still a really good price for
another Flight. [img]images/icons/confused.gif[/img]

It is ridiculous, but you can catch price drops in a day. I usually check after midnight when I call since previous 24 hour holds are released. That's what happened when I called for our Feb trip. Weird thing this time is no additional discount for online reservation. Usually airlines give additional discount for booking thru web.

Anyone know if US Airways gives the vouchers for price drops, too? Just curious...
Thanks!

Most airlines do I thought. I doesn't hurt to ask. Also the $175. fare I got last week is now $155.00 I imagine it will go down more.
