Airline & Hotel Packages for June

[gmac]

I've noticed that in the past week there have been significant price drops on flights and vacation deals from Jet Blue and several other airlines out of Boston. R/T airfare for midweek only $387. Priceline was lower on the vac packages by almost $70 per person compared to Expedia. I know that a few friends of mine couldn't make their trips due to the longer school year, but I have to wonder if there is more behind it. The planes flying out of Boston on midweek dates are almost empty.

I am going to go out on a limb...
Supply and demand...
Lower demand for flights and packages due to increased prices for everything in the U.S. = food and gasoline...
Surely takes a chunk out of everyone's budget.
I know our family did not budget for $4 a gallon gasoline...so it has to come from somewhere, in some cases it may be coming from vacation budgets.

On the other hand, I do know that the Divi, Tamarijn and Radisson are already sold out for select dates in June and into July.
