I bet you're right. It's really rare that I plan that far in advance; I'm usually a spur-of-the-moment kind of guy and just a few weeks is a long lead time for me. I'll check again in July and see if the fares are more... uhm... Frontier-like.
I wonder if this is typical of all ULCCs? Or just a F9 strategy?
