I'm going to go out on a whim and say they aren't. While the Sunday after Thanksgiving is the busiest travel day of the year, its probably safe to say the Christmas/New Years week is probably the busiest travel time of the year.

You've been posting for over a month now, I've offered alternate options to you which were cheaper, and you chose to ignore them.

What more do you want? A miracle fare sale during the busiest travel time of the year? Things are only going to get worse -- not better.

Either book now, or don't complain when fares go up again.


As of now, if you connect, using US Air, looks like you can save $300......Connect on CO/UA and save $100. Otherwise pay your 1100 and be done with it.
