Best time to book Thanksgiving flight?
booking now, cheapest is $450 from Boston to Minneapolis, 25th through 30th. Not a bad price, but would love something in the $300 range.
When's the best time to book between now and then?

Don't think it'll get much better.
One of my guys booked DFW to LGA yesterday, American non-stop round trip for ~$350. That was a good deal.

Within the last 20 years, oil was at a historic low in 1998, so maybe about then.

Interesting...if oil continues to stay low the rest of the year, we will be BELOW the yearly average high in 1980. So much for the death of oil.
