V-Flyer

Just booked for our annual flights from Manchester to Fort Lauderdale for our next Caribbean cruise. Can’t believe how expensive the prices have gone up to for Upper Class, almost double what we paid the last couple of years
Eventually decided on a PE in the 747 bubble outbound via Atlanta, with an UC return via JFK on the 330-200.Even that only brought prices down to slightly more than last year for UC both ways.

Depends when you are flying and If it's a popular route at a popular time then yes prices will be high.

If the tickets have only just been put on sale for flights next year then airlines only out the most expensive fares on sale and it takes a few days / weeks for the lower buckets to be added.
