Have flight prices massively gone up after the Ethiopia Airlines plane crashed?
Earlier today, I looked up round trip tickets on Delta from Atlanta to Tokyo in July and the tickets were over $3,300 a person! I've never seen them cost that much! Has this happened because of the Boeing 737 MAX aircrafts have been grounded since the plane crash happened in Ethiopia? (I'm also aware that a crash happened back in October with the same type of plane in Indonesia) It just seems ridiculous that a round-trip ticket on Delta non-stop from Atlanta to Tokyo would cost that much. Will tickets ever come down? My dad and I were planning on going to Japan this summer and we don't want to spend that much on tickets…
No. If air fares are affected by a crash they go lower. Check the fare again in a day or two, and check for travel dates around the date you want to fly.
If you're only looking at flying Delta, their prices are usually pretty high conpared to other airlines.
- My flight got moved to the next morning after I waited in the airport for 7 hours. Do I have a chance at a successful complaint? It was pouring outside, and the flight got delayed heavily. When it finally got there 5 hours later, the pilots said they were done for the day, and they moved the flight to early the next day. Of course, I chose to get the full refund and bail on the flight. Should I complain? (The airline is United)
- How do you know if Turkish Airlines will raise or drop the prices? A week ago i checked for prices from Boston to Venice and it was over $1400 and a few days later it dropped to $1115. The tickets are for June 29(ish, whenever it's cheaper) till July 15th. How do I know if the prices will raise or drop? Should I buy it while it's cheaper or wait and risk it, hoping they will go lower…
- Do airlines prices change depending on? I plan to fly in January but I was wondering if I try to buy the tickets on the same month will they go up or do the prices go up higher due to if the seats are almost full? I can't order them any sooner because at my job they told me they'll tell me if they'll give me the week off the same month I'm trying to leave that's why I wanted to know
- Can I sleep at the San Francisco airport after I returned my rent a car there if I'm not taking a plane? My dead line to drop off the car was at 7 pm. But I got here too late to take the train that I wanted to. I'm too exhausted to go anywhere affter driving 600 miles here.
