Summer is practically upon us!  Ahh... nice warm (or downright hot) weather, summer BBQ's , family get-togethers, vacations...

Speaking of vacations, we thought we might give you a little fair warning.

During our extensive daily searches of 1000's of airline fares, we discovered that in a high percentage of cases, flights were sold out from the beginning of July (usually after The 4th of July Holiday weekend ) through most of August.

Airfarewatchdog does usually indicate in the fare rules whether this is the case, however we thought we'd just give you an extra heads up. We found this with many US domestic flights across the board and some international flights as well... Apparently some people do make their summer travel plans in advance.

While you might still be able to get that awesome $99 roundtrip fare to Florida that you can brag to all of your family about at the annual family cookout, during the brunt of the summer travel season you may have to hunt around  for it.For example we found nonstop flights  from Baltimore (BWI) to Fort Lauderdale (FLL) leaving July 8 and returning the 15th for only $151 r/t ! So fear not, with a nice amount of determination you can see Mickey in the middle of July.

Bon voyage!
