Enjoy the government’s new airfare rule. It might not last.
AIRFARE
Should I wait for a fare sale or buy my airline ticket now?
Cruise refunds. There, didn’t your blood pressure just go up? Mine sure did.
In a word: fees. Lots and lots of fees.
The most volatile airline ticket prices in America are between Atlanta and Las Vegas, a new survey by Yapta has found. Fares between those cities changed an astonishing 2,472,916 times since the beginning of the year. That’s roughly once every six seconds.
Now you see it. Now you don’t. When you’re airfare shopping, attractive prices can vanish in a split second.
Time for a little reality check. Everyone is screaming about the unprecedented rise in airfares. Well, everyone is wrong.
Can’t we all just get along? Not if you’re an airfare expert — and not if USA Today is quoting you.
