I will also browse from an 'incognito window' especially for airline tickets. Sometimes my wife and I will be on the same site, and see different available flights and prices.
For airline tickets, never spend too much time shopping. BUT IF YOU DO, clear your cookies frequently. For me, so far, that seems to have solved the problem.

Years ago (before I knew), I was looking for tickets to visit some family. I got on and the tickets were something like $400. I tried changing the days of my visit around to see if that would help me save money. The first couple of searches left the price the same, but my the time that I thought "OK, I guess $400 is the best price" the price shot up to something like $750. I had been at work. I went home and got on the website to buy the tickets and they were back at the $400 price because I was using a different computer/browser. You can even get the same thing by using multiple browsers.
