NYC - London in July Dropped with $200 Today
« on: May 17, 2011, 02:28:52 AM »
We needed to go from NYC to London from 7/4 to 7/11 - 7/12, and for the past few months the fares remained steady at the mid $1100 range,
Today we decided that its about time to finally go ahead and book it, but today it happened....

Continental fares for these dates dropped with around $200, as it appears on all search engines to be around 900 bucks.

So we were lucky in the end......

(its still a high price but don't forget its 1 of the busiest traveling dates of the year)

If you have points or miles, it could be even cheaper...

Obviously, based on availability.

Maybe you need Orbitz price assurance. I'm not sure how it works though, if someone else has to book the same exact departure and return as you on Orbitz, then it's too unlikely to be worth anything.
