Does anyone know what is a good price? I travel in Nov. 2012 and trying to decide if I should buy now or wait. The cheapest is from Newark for total of about $440.

Thanks!

Wow! I usually fly out of JFK yearly for around $300---although I flew Continental this past July and it was $320 with taxes. $440 seems high to me but maybe prices are up? If this is the new norm, our yearly vacation is about to get really expensive. Good luck on the prices. I usually check constantly...I have found Wednesdays and Thursdays to have better rates when booking versus Mondays and Tuesdays if that helps.

Are you looking at Thanksgiving week or another week in November? Holiday weeks are more and probably won't come down. Airtran usually has good fares to NAS but they don't release fares early and by the time they do the other carriers have sold out of their lower fares. So far Airtran and SWA haven't merged fares and routes and I haven't heard a target date yet.

IMHO, there will be lower fares. Too far out for low fares now.

you may want to try out of Baltimore also. it was cheaper for us to fly out of baltimore than philadelphia. I thought that was a good price BTW.
