A Graphic Look At Seasonal Airfares

Just on a whim I took fare information from farecompare.com and put it in a chart.

This shows the lowest available round-trip fare between New York and Barcelona as of today, by month over a 10-month period. The shape of this is, I believe, pretty standard for transantlantic fares.

 Kind of explains the whole idea behind traveling on the spring and fall shoulder seasons, doesn’t it?
