I'd rather have less and go, than wait for more to become available.
On my first trip to Paris (almost 30 years ago, before the prevalence of mileage runs), my partner and I found a great $200 fare to Paris leaving on a Thursday, but he had to be back in town for jury duty on the following Monday. So we arrived there on Friday and returned on Sunday, much to the shock and awe of my coworkers.

My feeling was -- and still is -- "Two days in Paris is better than no days in Paris!"
