Flights -- cheaper to buy now or later

Flights -- cheaper to buy now or later?
I'm going to buy airline tickets from Indianapolis to Orlando in late March (Spring Break time), and currently the cheapest I can find is $220/person with taxes & fees. Is this likely to get more or less expensive in the coming months? Should I buy now, or wait for lower fares?

Spring break tickets aren't gonna go down. Many other times you can wait and get last minute deals but duringholidayss and things it isn'tt gonna happen.

I'd buy your ticket now. I booked a flight for early next year, I was watching ticket prices, they we're going down but now they're slowly starting to rise again. They might go back down but I wouldn't risk it and wait.

I think for spring break, that ticket price is reasonable. My opinion is to purchase the ticket.

Its hard to say. Depending on the airline, it might go up or down. Since its Spring Break though, the prices will most likely rise due to high demand on tickets. I would buy the ticket now. Its better than waiting and the tickets going up, or being sold out. Plus, that's not such a bad price. The last minute deals are usually to popular destinations like Las Vegas, Miami, New York, etc. Hope this helped! Have fun on your trip.

That's actually pretty cheap... Realistically, you shouldn't expect it to go down that much, so you'd basically be risking it by not buying now. However, do some more comparing before you buy them. Your best bet is BookMe. You can compare ALL the reputable travel sites, and save money. Good luck!
