2nd half SEP/start of OCT is school holidays. Won't be anything like $1000 fares up to a week before school holidays to USA or week after. Many people don't think twice about taking kids out of school for week or 2 to make big savings.

it has everything to do with cuts in capacity. We always try & book flights to USA around Xmas, as soon as they are loaded.
This time last year, we could get heaps of seats on many airlines for Xmas 2011 for $1800-$2000. Now looking at $3000+. Wouldn't fly UA if you paid me, they crash far too often & have terrible old & tired 744's. |

When exactly was United last crash that has lead to deaths? By my reckoning it would have been September 11 2001 and involved hijacking.
It is statements such as this that makes you loose credibility. |

You do NOT get seats over Xmas for $1800, this Xmas just past, they were $2500 plus!!!!
UA - Crashing too often..... Not even worth attempting to explain sometimes |

I currently looking at Air Pacific SYD-(NAN)-LAX out 15/12 back 05/01 for AUD 1785.32.
Try Skyscanner to compare prices, not ebay |

Andrew, what is it that you do? Travel industry?
May I suggest you do some research on the airlines you are commenting on, particuarly comments which could be seen as defamatory, such as: Quote:

found similar fare online, but

So don't really want to get caught up in some error. Friend bought some tickets to Queenstown last winter I think it was, at some incredible prices on Air NZ website, only to get a phone call later from Air NZ to say that it was wrong & they had to pay so much extra (& it was a lot). Not sure of legal position, but online sales errors probably covered in the fine print somewhere. |
