    Not usually no. The nearer you get the more expensive. However the cheapest time of the week to buy flights is Tues - Thurs. Unbelievably some airlines do increase their flights over the weekend.

    Looking on https://www.orbitz.com right now your flight appears to be £500 ea.
  • prices with some airlines are going up then down then up again at the moment.
