Fares seem to be higher in general. I've been watching fares to BNA from SoCal area (SNA, LAX, SAN) since December for a weekend trip in March. This route used to price out in the low- to mid- $200s but hasn't dropped below $300. And that's searching by Lowest Fare which gives the least convenient flights. My preferred flights price significantly higher. The same has been true for flights to DTW and DFW. Last I checked SoCal-DFW priced out at > $400. Fortunately these have been optional "it'd be nice to go" trips, so I haven't bought. I'm trying to be loyal to AA, but I've never seen fares stay this high for so long (for weekend trips). So instead of booking 3 midcons on AA looks like I'll be spending my money elsewhere.
