[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think we've all been very spoiled by cheap airfares over the past 30 years. I think this is the new normal, OP. I would probably gamble and wait a few more days to see if the prices drop in earlier Jan. But, in reality, I think you are just stuck with the high fares.[/quote]

+1.  Definitely.  It’s a little ridiculous that people could fly thousands of miles for a couple hundred dollars.  They’re just externalizing the cost somewhere else.

I just always think of it as a balance.   Like people complain about the costs of disney tickets but the flights are super cheap.  You can go some random low cost country and vacation but odds are the flight prices are going to be sky high.  There are very few locations where you can get both low cost flights and low cost at the destination.

We’ve had free companion pass on southwest for the last couple of years so we’ve used that to travel places like Aruba and Hawaii and Arizona for basically half price.  That’s coming to and end in March though.  But we did take a lot more vacations based on where SW flew just bexauae of that though! [/quote]
