Last-minute flights could cost up to $ 200 more than ones reserved earlier. And pretty much every person is paying more than they did last year. Round-trip domestic flights between Nov. 17 and 27 are averaging $ 386, a 9 % boost from last year, according to Travelocity's senior editor Courtney Scott. Part of the trouble : Financially-strapped carriers, like American Airlines, remain to cut the number of flights they're providing, stated Clem Bason, president of the Hotwire Group. That implies there are less seats to go around and the ones that are available are more costly, specifically around the Thanksgiving holiday. But if you've just chosen that you wish to see your household over the vacations, all hope is not lost. There are ways to save on last-minute travel over Thanksgiving. First, prepare to be versatile with your travel dates.

Key:

  • Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
