Two years ago I nabbed Vietnam Airlines premium economy tickets to Europe in Dec-Jan for about 2k return.

I suffer the same problem as I think everyone else does… do I book now or wait and when do I Stop waiting and buy because prices will just leap.

Any thoughts?

Last year we booked our business flights on Vietnam Airlines in September for a trip to Germany in November /December. This tickets were out of/return to Singapore. There seemed to have been no overall price changes before we departed in Mid-November. The only increases were due to the basic fare seats slowly filling. Flying ex-Australia may be a different matter as I notice that they have enthusiastically applied the 'Australia tax' to their fares - ex Perth at least.

because its Christmas, the hard reality is book early.

that said, the airfares are NOT friendly even now....
its the seasonal factors of high demand and limited supply
