Does anyone have any insight or magic incantation I can utter to get a better airfare from Charlotte in October? We like the direct flight on AA but the fare drains much (or at least some) of the joy out of our trip. Is $680 per person round trip about average? Do I need to just stop whining and suck it up? Should I book now or wait?


We have flown out of Charlotte direct the last 5 years in October. I start watching the flights every day starting this time of year. I have seen them drop over a hundred dollars each for a day or two, and then they go back up. Sometimes they go up more than they were originally listed. It is kind of like Vegas. Knowing when to pull the trigger is luck, and hope you get the best price before they go back up. The price you have listed is about where they are this time of year. The last two years, I bought just a little later than this time of year. I am also watching the price for our October trip this year. Good luck.
