Travel plan in X'mas
Is it too early to make travel plans for X'mas? We are planning to go
to South America, Brazil to be specific, in X'mas. The fares all exceed $1,000. I know we have to pay some form of ransom either way travelling during that period. In 2002, a little over a year post 9/11 when people are still reeling from the WTC collapse we paid $278 per person flying from Phila to Rio. Although with security fees and taxes each ticket came to a little over $400. We bought the tickets a few weeks before making the journey. I know those days will never be back. We paid $100 each person in 2002 to get a five year tourist Visa to Brazil. We'd like to used it again before it expires in 2007. |

If you have any flexibility in dates, you'll probably spend less and enjoy more by avoiding holiday rush. If you don't, then just go and enjoy yourself anyway. |

Kids have three weeks of winter recess starting just before X'mas. Guess I'll wait a few weeks watching how the fares move. If they do at all. |
