Hello Smile

It's been 3 years since we have been back to Aruba, the last 2 times we went were both in September and I recall flights being near or less than $450 per person all total (via Southwest) from BWI.
The lowest I am finding is $506 per person, is that about right or do you think I should keep searching/waiting?

Thanks! Cool

I'm always happy if the fare falls between the $450 - $520 range for us.

I think it really depends on if you're comfortable with the $506 fare or not. If yes, then book it and don't look back. Wink

September is the low season though. We go almost every year in Sept. and usually pay in the $400+ range. But we fly from Minneapolis so I don't know what your market generally goes for. For us, when we go in Sept. we normally don't book our flights until May or June. I would take a look at the seats available. If more than half are still open, I would wait a bit.

That always helps me when I'm trying to make a decision to book or hold off a little. If there alot of seats available then you'll probably see the fares go down. Also, the best time to check for fares is usually Tues-Thursday. I've had the best luck finding the lowest fares on those days.
