I heard the ticket prices were going down in April for the summer. Anyone heard of this? If so, I would like to tell guest to wait closer to our date of the wedding to buy a ticket. I just picked a date for my wedding a couple weeks ago & at that time, you could get flights for $300 (incl taxes). I chose the dates partially based on airfare prices. Now it's $700! Luckily I booked 20 seats at a group rate around $400. But all of those tickets are now accounted for, & I'm sure the airfare prices are going to dissuade quite a few of my potential guests from going. I keep hearing about summer airfare pricing wars, but I have seen no evidence of it!
