Will airline fares get cheaper as it gets closer to the Spring/Summer

Will airline fares get cheaper as it gets closer to the Spring/Summer?
I have a vaction planned in Panama City, Florida in the 2nd week of June. I already have the hotel booked, but I dont want to drive 14 hrs from Columbus, Ohio to Florida. Right now, Delta and NWA cheapest round trip flights are approx $350. Will fares get cheaper as it gets closer to my vacation date?

Yes they will because it will be Spring and Summer soon

Sorry, but Sara is wrong. $350.00 is a VERY good price and it will not go down in cost the closer you get, in fact it will only get more expensive. I looked quickly on fares from Columbus to Panama city and the least "expensive" was $305.00 without any of the taxes. You need to book this ASAP. Please don't be drawn in and fooled by the "last min hype". Things are changing and you will regret it if you wait and might then end up driving depending on the price.

The fares will only go up toward spring and summer because that is the busy season for airlines. A lot of people are doing vacation traveling then, which allows the airlines (I know it's unfair) to hike their prices. $350 for a round trip is an extremely good deal. If I were you, I'd book it right now. The longer you wait, the higher the prices are going to go.

What is a good travel site for finding awesome deals, especially if your travel schedule is flexible

What is a good travel site for finding awesome deals, especially if your travel schedule is flexible?
I am looking for a website that I can go to for deals on flights and hotels when I just want to get away. I know about priceline, hotwire, hotels.com, etc. I'm just wondering if there are any other sites with some really great deals or another way to get great travel deals. I don't even care where I go! I just want to go somewhere! I'm based in Columbus, OH. Thanks!

The best site I have used lately is http://www.kayak.com . They saved me hundreds over Expedia or Orbitz. Give them a try.

I don't think you are reading the answers people give, you are too busy setting up the next question.

"how come All of the advanced technology came from either 1. Europe 2. North America 3. Japan......." Answer: Because Europe went through a golden period of advancement where they began to apply the scientific method to everything. During the period, the middle east were going back to their survival roots based in Islam, instead of following suit. Both were seeking a Golden Age, except Europe found it. When Europeans emigrated to North America, they brought the scientific method with them. Furthermore, Japan began to modernize during the Meiji restoration and also began applying scientific method to their research. "how come rest of the world lagged and missed the 1. science-age 2. industrial-age 3. internet/web. did Not invent the Internet / web / cell phone" Please read above, then understand that Western society was already far ahead in scientific advancements, leaving the rest of the world behind.

They've never embraced/fully embraced western liberalism and capitalism.

It depends how late you get them. If they are the day of, it will cost a lot more but if you get them a little later than other people would, it should get cheaper. It also depends which airline you are buying from.
2 :
It's not getting any cheaper.
3 :
no they will not, tickets are at there cheapest 8-12 weeks before your departure date. last minute tickets are usually the most expensive 99% of the time.
4 :
nope... well sometimes airlines offer discount seats at the last minute to sell as much as possible but it's a risk check out http://flyairfares.com
5 :
No, they usually get more expensive cuz some people have less flexibility as the date gets closer. If they have to travel on that day, then they have to pay that price. Your mom can by the ticket for you with her credit card online (my mom did that for me)
