suck it airlines

so i am trying to plan a trip late this summer. and its getting more expensive by the minute. literally. each time i check back on the fares they have gone up in "good dinner out" increments AND the best price is still a 6 am departure. AND to top it off, i emailed customer service and got this auto-response:

*** Please do not reply to this email as this is an unmonitored email box. *****

Airlines make me want to cry. Just the other day Oscar was buying a ticket and from the time he clicked on the flight he wanted to the time it came up (seconds!!) the price changed. REALLY??????? What the heck. We need our own plane no? :)

That is really irritating. I'm getting better at blogging as you can see. :)

yuck...Dave and I have some big travel plans in the fall to Europe, so I am worried we are going to be in for a big shock. You may have to keep me updated with travel info...when to buy, etc....
