Most airlines have a window of around 330 days out for making reservations. (this is from your day of return...not your day of departure).

27 days for our April trip; 261 for our November/December trip.

I usually plan the next trip as soon as we arrive home. But apparently I'm becoming EVEN MORE obsessed and planning the next trip even sooner now! :roll:

I feel a teeny bit sorry for you, because I have "only" 296 days to go! But if you're not paying holiday prices, then maybe my pity is lessened a bit! Where are you staying?

Just put the stamp on our deposit check, 360 days for us. I tried to talk daughter #1 into a STJ wedding, so we could go this year - no dice. Something about his family being able to come to the wedding too. When did grooms start having a say in wedding locations?

As a bride-to-be, I completely agree with you! However, when I suggested STJ to my fiance, he was THRILLED with the idea. How could he be disappointed with a week in paradise? And in our situation, we don't really want the whole family with us, so this location is perfect in more ways than one! ;)

Just 120 more days till the big event for us! And only 116 more days till we take off!

JC - just saw your post - so AWESOME!!!! I hope you have a wonderful time - I have about 45 days till he plays here at Jazz Fest, and I can't wait!!!!

Do have a cold one for me and let us know how he was!!!

I guess I'll have to settle for our Jazz and Heritage Fest right now. I do spend alot of time at the blues stage though.

Unfortunately for us, we will not be able to make our 2nd trip until the fall of 2008. So with a quick calculation, we're looking at around 600 days!! But guess what?....I'll be checking this site every few days until we leave.....sad, but true!!
