For the past two weeks I've been listening to news broadcasters speaking of the lower oil prices having a positive effect on lowering the cost of aviation fuel, ergo also lowering airline tickets. And for the same two weeks I've received fare watcher notifications that the seats on our 'watched' flights have increased significantly with each notification.
March/April is a very popular time on the island - regatta, religious holidays and many East coast schools schedule their winter to spring vacations then, too. Seats tend to become more of a premium depending on specific dates and flights.
There is always the chance your airline may run a great sale! Or NOT! But if your flights are filling up......I'd personally follow the sage advice of so many here and choose a fare I was comfortable and book it and be done with it. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />
