Flights... losing my bottle fast! Advice please

It's finally coming up to the time to book our flights to Florida next year.

We are going for 23 nights in October flying out on the 19th. I know the majority of airlines haven't released the fights yet but I was looking on Skyscanner and have found flights for £497 each through Iceland Air indirect via Reykjavik.

That price is the lowest I will have ever paid and seems really good. The only issue is the flight times aren't the best. Not terrible but by no means the best.

This has left me with a dilemma. Book now, happy with the price and knowing it's sorted. Or wait 2.5-3 weeks to see what the other carriers offer?

Someone give me some steerage because I'm driving myself insane 😂😂😂

Cheers

Tommy

Wait. Honestly I nearly jumped with indirect flights for late august at just under £500 each. I only didn't because I needed authorisation from work. A few days later Norwegian released their flights and I got direct flights meals and 2 bags each for £359! So very pleased with that. Xx

Cheers everyone yeah I think I'm going to take the advice and wait. Hopefully I can get an indirect flight through the states so we can clear immigration stateside.

Cheers everyone

I'm waiting! Looking for flights on the 21s oct for 14 nights, I have screenshots skyscanner dummy bookings that I took in Aug this year for oct this year for £1600 flying virgin via Atlanta so I know there will be deals to be had if I don't manage to get direct flight in my price bracket of £2500 BA flydrive!

Wait!

I'm holding my nerve for August flights and am rapidly losing it! Hanging on just a few more weeks until the Xmas seat sales (they had better be good)!

BA had started to reduce their flight prices yesterday, I booked as we a fixed with dates and it was a pretty good price for WT+.

Hopefully our waiting will pay off. In previous years all the dummy bookings have been really good prices then when I come to book the price has rocketed 🚀 😔
