Delta prices went up overnight?
I was pricing a number of flights yesterday and they all seem to have gone up overnight...in particular I was looking at flights from MSP to SJU for anytime in November / December. Yesterday they were $400'ish, today they're $600 and up.
Grrrr! Anyone else notice this? I'm hoping they drop again on Sunday or Monday. {sigh}
Trying to get 5,300 miles by the end of the year...MSP - SJU would have done it (via certain connections)...

Settled on PHX tried JFK-PHX and it was $288 , went to LGA-PHX and the flight times werent as good , went back to JFK and it went down to $278 grabbed it. Looked this morn but now it was $498 for an early Dec trip

Same deal, just venting. Needed to get to today to discuss dates to go LGA-MCO with my wife. Of course, just went on and.....GONE! Up $100. I'll try and wait it out for next sale again now I suppose since this is just leisure travel.

If checking with hubby was the only thing stopping you, remember that you have (had) 24 hours to cancel a Delta ticket.

Exactly. If you see something you like, just book it. THEN ask your sweetie, etc. Can't decided between two sets of dates? Book 'em both, stat. THEN check your calendar and cancel the one you don't want within 24hours. You don't even have to call anyone--just click "cancel" on your DL itineraries page.
