SYD-LAX flights April 2016 - buy now or wait?

Ok, before we start. I know that nobody knows if airfares will go up or down. I know that if I am happy with a price I should just pull the trigger etc

So, onto my question. My family and I are going to the US in November (thanks Qantas) but I am looking to travel back again in April 2016, around school holidays but planning to leave a week or so before they start.

I just missed the cheap American deal and have been looking into fares since then. For the 6 of us it's coming in at around $5500 direct with QF or DL. The adult fare is around $1150 an the kids slightly cheaper.

So my question. What are your thoughts on sale fares to LAX becoming available during April? If I can get the total to sub 5k that would be awesome, so I guess that's looking at adult fares around $1000.

Any (kind) thoughts welcome. Cheers

  • Check out www.iwantthatflight.com.au and www.adioso.com - They're privately started flight portals for low cost and full service airlines and you can set up flight alerts for destinations, when prices drop or go on sale. So you can jump on the sale without having to check up all the time. best thing is you can set up multiple alerts for multiple dates. Thats how I got my 250 one way flights to Japan :) - Happy travels.
