Traveling to Texas Flight Information?
I live in Canada and I am traveling to Mexico around the 28th of December 2008, but my dates are flexible. I am going to fly to San Antonio, Texas first and then drive to my destination. I am not going to a resort, I am going to be visiting friends. I was wondering if I should be buying my ticket now in order to get the best price, or should I wait? Thank you so much for your time and any help you can give me! I have been watching the prices for over a month now, and they are not changing that much. I have come up with a good price point though by watching!

I would buy it soon if not now. Keep an eye on the prices for about a week so that you know what to consider a "good price". You can also use sites like www.farecast.com to see if the price is supposed to go up or down (take that with a grain of salt though).

Try booking now, the flights will slowly become more full, and the price of a seat can fly up. The cheapest I got was $641 one way on Air Canada from YYZ. I got a cheaper flight on US AIRWAYS from YYZ to SAT with one stop in Charlotte,NC. The price was $368 one way. American Airlines has a $337 fare one way, with one stop in Chicago. PLEASE EMAIL ME WITH THE EXACT DATES so I may find you the cheapest flight.

From my own experience, I would buy ASAP so that the flight would not increase closer to the date of travel. Around the holidays it can cost you a "pretty penny". Also, you would not want to be stuck paying the most just to get that last seat on the plane. It's great that you have been watching prices for over a month, now you know what you are willing to spend and what you are willing to let go. Don't regret getting the ticket last minute paying $100+! Best wishes and safe travels for you :-)
