So last year Booked in November 2024 Melbourne to Brisbane return....2 one way tickets with 15/20kg luggage.....$290. Total Weekday travel within Tues- Thursday. Dec-Jan Jetstar lite

Just booked in September for same period Melb -Brisbane Dec-Jan round trip with 15/30kg heavier bag on return... leaving a Friday(Doh)
$432 Jetstar lite

1. Have prices increased that much?
2. If I waited would fare been less in Nov
3. CHATGPT said book now..... as fares would increase.

I see dates in October $99 no luggage each way.
I used Google flights and Skyscanner incognito mode.. Booked Friday during the day.

Also the Quick fix does not get you a refund if you want to change the day(lower fare) within the first hour of booking.
