Strange, obscenely expensive pricing?
I love to fly F9 because of the low costs, and I've done a lot of day trips and spur-of-the-moment kind of trips for < $100 r/t. I've even planned maybe a month or so in advance and had flights cost around $120 r/t. This is kind of what I've come to expect from F9.
So, I decided I want to do a long weekend in Milwaukee in August. When I looked at flights yesterday, MCO-MKE in August, both flights on Saturday, came in at around $1,299 base price WITH Discount Den. I checked again this morning and the same route on the same day is $998 r/t. Is this some kind of weird error? Is something going on with pricing? Why on Earth would someone pay as much to fly F9 to Milwaukee as they could pay to fly to Paris on B6? Something seems... wonky.
