[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You're booking too late for this spring break.[/quote]

This. There were reasonable prices in october. Tbe county school calendar came out and im booking next year winter now. [/quote]

This is not true. I booked the same flight last year for spring break - IAD - Vegas - at nearly half the price of what I'm seeing now. We went to Zion and tickets were reasonable. I booked in Feb/March. I never book Spring Break in October. This year, we were thinking Death Valley or Sequoia, or whatever option was cheaper. Costs are nearly double. I also have miles but don't want to spend that many miles just to travel domestic when I can use them for overseas travel.

I don't understand who is paying $1200 to go to Vegas. It just seems like costs have skyrocketed. Domestic travel used to be cheaper than int'l travel, and I don't find that to be the case now.[/quote]

This is still Econ 101 plus inflation. There were fewer travelers last year coming out of the pandemic. [/quote]

2022 had the highest rates of travel out of the pandemic. 2022 had sky high travel. 2023 has not surpassed 2022 nor has it reached 2019 levels. So the it's just Econ business is not entirely true. Is it overall inflation? Lack of workforce? Greed?[/quote]
