Could air travel be affordable again? When I saw Soultravelers3 mention Fire sales! How cheap can travel go? (Budget Travel, March 6) it wet my appetite.
I had my eye especially on flights to Spain for which Iberia has a whole slew of offers, starting with New York-Barcelona (Round Trip) for $206 (Taxes, surcharges and service fees included)…
I decided to check New York-Toulouse and was happy to see that if I wanted to take a week off in May and leave say Monday the 18, returning the 25th, I could fetch a round trip ticket (one stop) for $432 again with taxes and fees included.
As of now, fares start climbing as soon as you get into June.
Will it last?
Will it be a hot summer for airfare bargains?
Time will tell…
One for the Consumed to Thrifty crowd.
