is it me... or do flights appear a little more ££ this year?

Looking to book my usual PE round trip to NYC this summer and things seem a little pricey... wouldn't fly any other airline to NY though :)

In a word.

Olympics

Combination of people coming to see the games and other wanting to escape the hullabaloo.

A lot of my friends are escaping then. Especially those living in London.

Now don't get to thinking that the airlines are on to this, and are pricing to take the maximum benefit ...
