I am talking about $100+ difference in price in the same flight from one day to the other. Is this a tendency and we should expect lower fares for the next few week? I am going to hold on for now to book my ticket for my february trip in hopes to get a cheaper fare.
Hi there,

Don't count on it. When you see a fare that you like, buy it. At the present time, fuel prices are increasing due to the various snowstorms in Europe and the US. Thus prices will go up. They might go down again next week.

The moral of the story is ... if you like the price, go for it, don't wait for the unexpected.

Cheers,
