It’s once you get below 6 weeks pre departure that the chance of any great deals dries up.
There was a very recent ex AMS deal that I took advantage of for 1k pp to almost anywhere in the States (I bookedNYC in Sept) and I’m currently in California for £2.5k for me & my wife in J with 10days SUV rental ex INV.
Be prepared to move fast if something appears though as the AMS deal lasted less than 1 day.
I saw the ex AMS deal just too late or that would probably have been just what I was after.
will hold on a bit, there’s no desperate rush (other than my own impatience). The car hire can be separate if it restricts options.
Ex INV would probably be the best I could do - ease Mr SM in gently before I start taking him off to more unexpected destinations to start trips to the US!
