Travelling to Orlando early July 2009 and home from New York in a party of seven. We have been watching the flight prices on the aer Lingus Site and up ontil 3 days ago the price for Dublin-Orlando out and New York- Dublin back was €925 per adult. We have our accomodation booked but decided to watch the flight prices for a while before booking in the hope that there might be a sale or the fuel surcharges might reduce or something similar.
Last night at approx. 10pm we checked again and for no apparent reason the exact same flights on the same dates were then priced at €698 per adult. Needless to say we jumped straight in and booked them ( had to make 2 bookings as max of six per booking allowed but price didn't change for the single person on the 2nd booking and then we pre booked the seven seats together on the plane). We were all feeling rightly chuffed at our good fortune at saving €225 per person and even more so when this morning the price is now €934 per person.
Strange but true and we're certainly not complaining but how does this happen when there was no sale for July 2009 ?????
Hopefully some more got lucky also
