I'm taking my family to Europe in our Sept school holidays this year. I started looking at flights and found what seemed to be reasonable pricing for 2 adults and 2 kids. $3,987 on Thai Airways, into Heathrow with only one short stop in Bangkok. Two questions, does this look like a good price? And should I be trying to buy tickets this early on for good pricing or do cheaper prices get released later (or perhaps it makes no difference)?
Do I Buy Flights Early or Later?

$3,987 for 4?
sounds like a dealMaybe they serve lobsters and caviar?
maybe they load you in the luggage hold
Ok, thanks.
That's a great deal. Do it.
Make sure it's AUD not USD but regardless it's a bargain for Sept school holidays.
$1000 AUD return pp to europe during the school holidays?
Yes OP, it normally doesn't get much better than that! Lock it in
I usually find buying airfares way in advance means you pay the stock price (high), and buying them within a few weeks of your chosen dates may mean the flights are near sold out (very high). I think the best time to buy flights is months out, or right before you need to travel. Airlines sometimes dump prices to avoid flying half full planes.
Having said that, 4 people all inc on a premium airline to London for $1k each is a screaming hot deal. Take it. Take it now.
that is a very good price. grab it.
Agree 1k is a great price. Even in sales premium airlines charge 1.2k at the minimum.
Good price for school holidays.
I want to go now.
Can't tell if trollin
