Ticket pricing depends on how far in advance I book, rarely more than 2 weeks before the flight, and the travel day of the week. I typically depart BOS on a Saturday morning. My TPE trip ($4500) was ticketed 2 days before the flight. I always buy upgradable coach tickets.
Usually California, but I do Texas once a year and recently did New Orleans. Texas and N.O. were both right on the money at $2,700. These fares are usually purchased between 60 and 90 days in advance. I can usually score a $2,200 RT fare to California if I am tracking a flight on google flights. I have a lot more luck flying mid week but I've gotten those same fares flying Friday/Monday.
