big Fare increases....??
 
Hi
I've had an itinerary on hold in Expedia to LAS & MCO from LHR in October and the airfare has increased by £125 ($225) overnight. This seems to be an increase across all airlines and also on the airlines own websites (ual, BA, NW). Can someone tell me what going on as this seems a little high for a fuel/security price rise because even if I change the date the rise is still there..

many thanks
Lardie :confused: :confused:

I suspect it's due to the upcoming summer season. The airlines won't want to be advertising discounted fares at a time when they want to maximise revenue.

I don't know when you'll see discounting again for the winter schedules. Perhaps this is a permanant fare change *shrugs*.
