Our return trip will be on the 24th of July via CDG with a 3 day layover in Paris before heading home to Montreal on the 27th.

The prices I am being quoted now hover around $1010-1050 for my wife and I and $1250-1350 for our son. Flying Air France.

My question is whether I should go ahead and book at these prices or wait a few more weeks just in case prices drop. I have not taken a trip in years because of health issues so I am really out of the loop.

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again,

John
You can't predict where prices will go, but these seem like reasonable prices, especially yours. I doubt you'll save a dramatic amount by waiting. If it fits with your schedule and you can afford it, then you don't have a lot to lose, imo.

If you do buy them..DO NOT keep checking afterward to see if the prices go down. Just enjoy your trip. Greece is great!
