cynt Posted May 6, 2022 #1 Share Posted May 6, 2022 Anybody else experiencing crazy flight prices to FL? My usual October fall flight to MIA is $250ish all day, every day. Right now it's $419. YIKES!! I don't know rather to wait to see if it drops or pull the trigger and purchase it. I checked flying into FLL as well and it's still $400ish. We're definitely paying for the cheap flights we got in 2020 and '21. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marie51 Posted May 6, 2022 #2 Share Posted May 6, 2022 Airline prices have been up for a while now. Recently I pay just as much for my airfare as I did for the cruise which is ridiculous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KINGBOBOFTHENORTH Posted May 6, 2022 #3 Share Posted May 6, 2022 Because of high demand and high fuel prices, airline fares are indeed way up. You might wait until August to see if some of the airlines run their typical Fall sales. Demand always drops after school starts. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolOne56 Posted May 6, 2022 #4 Share Posted May 6, 2022 cynt, I agree with you. My Oct./Nov. flights were usually around $250-$300. Now, it's $540 at one airline and $773 at another. This is crazy! 😠 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrusinCyndi Posted May 8, 2022 #5 Share Posted May 8, 2022 The prices are crazy. We always fly first class and tickets for middle of August jumped from $1200 R/T for 2 people to as of a few hours ago $2300. This is on American Airlines. Glad I booked at the $1200 rate as I was debating to wait or not. This would be from Chicago to Miami 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi,🙂 I am guessing you meant to say you are NOT paying for the cheap flights you got back in 20 and 21. Oh....you meant you are paying the price now........yes, it is true. Flights are high all over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cienfuegos Posted May 11, 2022 #7 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Several airlines have announced they are scaling back some flights this Summer due to crew difficulties. Fewer flights = (higher prices and more crowding) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indiansbaseball Posted May 14, 2022 #8 Share Posted May 14, 2022 (edited) We always cruise in October and I have been checking every day. Our flight was as high as $461. And the other day it was $387. I booked. The next day it was $367. I cancelled and rebooked. Now it is $491. Check every day…several times a day. Now I have to stop looking because I’m locked in.

CorrieCJ Posted June 14, 2022 #9 Share Posted June 14, 2022 We ended up adding an extra day to our trip pre-cruise because Wednesday flights were so much cheaper than Thursday. Since we are 6 people, the savings far outweighed an extra night of hotel/meals, plus hey, it's an extra day of vacation! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George C Posted June 14, 2022 #10 Share Posted June 14, 2022 Price of flights have gone crazy we are paying about 400 more each for our first class tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1CruiseDreamer Posted June 28, 2022 #11 Share Posted June 28, 2022 I booked flights for my myself and fiance back in March the same day I booked this cruise. In order to get flights that made sense for time and price, we will be flying in two days ahead of the cruise. The price for flights the day before a cruise was outrageous!!! I forgot that the airline companies have access to cruise port schedules and will set prices accordingly with the anticipation that a lot of people will fly in for cruises. The hotels are knowledgeable of this as well and plot their pricing right along with this.....SMH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
