Will price go down

I am looking to book Albuefeira holiday on Monarch, from 4th to 11th October at the moment price is £480. Would you expect the price to go down?

    That's less than 3 weeks away so chances are against it.

    If Monarch have a sale it could go down in price, if Monarch are having a sale at the moment and it ends then it will go up. Do you have an alternative if this holiday disappears?

    The OP asks "Will the price go down?"

    I'd like to add another couple of questions:
    will my lottery numbers come out on Saturday?
    will Scotland vote for independence?

    Seriously, it's a question that nobody can answer, only speculate on.

    I'd agree with photome, if you can afford the price and really want that exact holiday, I'd book it at the price advertised.

    If the price is tight or you'd be happy to find an alternative destination on maybe alternative dates from maybe an alternative airport, then hang on.

    Could you use matched betting to insure against a price change?
  • It may sell out as we speak then you won't have to worry about it
