another airplane ?

Sorrt that this is my 10 millionth question about this...when you say that the plane ticket prices go down about 3 weeks before departure, do you do that through a service things like expedia or travelocity or whatever? Or is that what every airline place does?

i usually go thru expedia

but the prices are pretty universal among all the travel websites/airline websites

It is pretty much the same across airlines. I use Travelocity Fare Watcher. It sends me an email any time the fare drops. Be careful with buying through a 3rd party and not the airline. You need to be sure that you can change the ticket if you need to and sometimes the online sites will not let you change because of their arrangements with the airlines.

also sometimes prices tend to go up the longer you wait to book your flight. i tend to take the cheapest flight i see, i dont like to wait til even 3 weeks before i feel like thats too risky..but that's just me. when im going on a trip as soon as i know the dates i start checking fares obsessively for a few days when i find the lowest price i just book it. hope you can find a good deal!!

Also with the fuel prices being the way they are, the waiting might not be the best thing to do.
