I'm going to Ibiza (total Ibiza virgin!!!) this August. Already booked my hotel, but have held off on the flight reservations. Right now lowest price I have found is for $913 (about 772 Euros). Was wondering if anyone knew if prices might go down or if August is extremely expensive to fly during as well.

I checked prices if I was traveling in about a month from now and found flights for around $750. Think I might get this low of price if I hold out a little for August too?

Thanks a bunch, this forum has been great and helped out a lot with my trip planning!! Think I might actually be ready for Ibiza now!! 8)
 
August is peak season, so flights should be around that price. But worth every penny.

Back in 2001 I paid $950 for an August flight (Miami - Ibiza).
Just some advice, book your flight as soon as possible.

Also get a quote from a local travel agent, not just on the net!
 
Sarah:

:idea: I would advise that you get a RT ticket to London, and then get another set of RT tickets from London to IBZ through any of the following airlines:

Easy Jet (www.easyjet.com)
Bmi Baby (www.bmibaby.com)
Ryan Air (www.ryanair.com)
Iberia (www.iberia.com)

Had I been going to IBZ this year, I would definitely try the above-mentioned alternative, prior to purchasing tickets. By the way, after Jun-15, ticket prices spike up by about $150 - $200. ;)

Cheers, :)

Expensive flight season

I purchased my flights from Seattle to Europe a couple of weeks ago. I had been hoping that I would hit a fare sale any one of these days... as it always seems to be that whenever I book a flight, its cheaper the next day.

It doesn't seem to be the case this year, as evidenced by this CNN article:
http://www.cnn.com/2004/TRAVEL/ADVISOR/04/23/fare.sales/index.html

I ended up purchasing my roundtrip flight from Seattle to Barcelona through Northwest/KLM for $1080 USD. This is in July (15th to the 25th).

My first time to Ibiza we took the Trasmediterranea ferry there and back... but it turns out its a whole light cheaper to fly with Spanair. Round trip tickets from BCN to IBZ were less than 100 euros.

Not too shabby... my flight from SEA to AMS is non-stop as well, and I'm in AMS for a couple of hours before continuing on to BCN.

I would suggest booking as quickly as possible though... it seems to be kicking off a high gear travel season.

Sarah,
Get a flight to London for as cheap as possible (I found a flight out of Philly this week on Northwest for $499 with taxes.)

Then, from London, leave out of Gatwick on EasyJet (www.easyjet.com) to Ibiza.

I booked this round trip for $650 this week.
 
yeah that's what we did. flew ot london for about 650 and another about 150 from london to ibiza. last time i went i flew direct and it was like $1200
