I realize AI is under new management and nothing is guaranteed to be the same...but in the past, has AI released lower 'web special' J fares for high season US-India travel closer to the date? Right now they are only showing 'flexible' J fares for our December flight dates. Many thanks!

Especially in the very busy T'giving to New Year travel period when nearly every one with Indian roots tries to fly from the US to the homeland and everything is booked out

OK, thanks everyone! I see prices rising (over $6000 in J for ORD-DEL is rather high given the 777 hard product), so I guess I will go with one-stops on other airlines, which are cheaper and have a better J product but take longer.

In the past they have released Web Special fares around specific times of the year. They have done so around this time calling it an 'Independence day' sale & in September calling it a "Diwali' sale.
