Flight sales Help needed

Hi all, we are looking to go to Las Vegas and dallas in October. 2 weeks ago flights were 445-500 now they are £650-750. Does anyone know if there will be any flight sales from now until October if not should we just buy the tickets for that high?

    If you want to travel near the school half term holiday, demand may mean the only way is up.

    Why did you wait?
  • Where are you flying from, what dates do you want? That info is vital if you want an answer.

    There is a good chance there will be sales but the airlines never announce them in advance - for obvious reasons - and there is no guarantee that the route and dates you want will be included in the sale. The best thing is to sign up for their emails so that you'll be among the first to hear when there is a sale on.

    How are you planning the trip?

    Fly into LAS-DFW-LHR(MAN) ??

    Flights to\from LAS tend to be more expensive as it's a (mostly) all year round Holiday destination and Dallas is never cheap as it's a business destination (Correct me if I'nm wrong).

    So some shrewd city hopping may be in order to get cheaper fares.
