I heard that during that time of year- there are great opportunities to swim with the Whale Sharks

I LOVE Cabo!   I wrote a post on my blog (CourtneyMara.com) about Los Cabos:  http://courtneymara.com/2012/01/09/memorial-day-weekend-in-cabo-san-lucas-mexico/.   Check it out!  It has our itinerary.  We LOVED the pirate ship snorkeling cruise.  It would only be good though if you don't have the most formal of guests since it is an open bar and super cheesy that it is hilarious and fun!

my fiancé is obsessed with the fact that he is doing this excursion with a few of our guests who are interested, I think he may be more excited about this whale shark excursion than our actual wedding!!

Ladies anyone heading down to Punta Cana for a May wedding coming from the NYC area....OMG the airfare is $525 rt =( I am so worried it will continue to go up and def effect our head count. Anyone else waiting and hoping it goes down??!!! Sigh....so worried grrrr

I think they will go down, generally its 3 months out (for Caribbean and Mexico when they are the cheapest) At least that's what I saw on MS NBC a while back and seems to have worked for me every timeI have traveled to those places! (including this year when I went twice)

it looks like there is some flight price fluctuation since the holiday season kicked off even for flights for next Spring.  I noticed a price jump of at least $50 for flights coming from all over the country to Grand Cayman in the last 3 weeks.  For example, the nonstop flight from NYC to Grand Cayman was $468 and is now going for $517. Same flight.  Hope things go down after the holidays in January. They probably will.

I hope you're right. Flights for my Fi's parents went up $75/per person in the past 4 weeks they're debating whether they should book now or wait until after the new year in hopes that it will drop back down to the price that it was...

If it's anything like JA, I'd suggest you book it now before your outta luck. If your guests book with itravel2000, they have a price guarantee so that if it goes down you're guaranteed to get a reimbursement chq in the mail up to $200. that gives a bit of peace of mind.

We are getting married in PC in May.  The prices from Philly have been hovering around $615 (my FI is in charge of flights and doesn't want to drive to NYC to save some $ and wants direct flights only).  When I picked the place, I was expecting them to be closer to $450.  :-(  I am going to check out that itravel2000 site for sure!!!
