Milano - Alicante or Trieste - Trapani

Hey guys!

I have a "strategic" question for you! By budget is 100€.
I'm deciding between:

Milano - Alicante (27/10/2011)
Alicante - Milano (01/11/2011)
Current cost: 144€ (12.oct 2010)

and

Trieste - Trapani (27/10/2011)
Trapani - Trieste (02/11/2011)
Current cost: 96€ (12.oct 2010)


But I would really prefer Alicante than Trapani. Trapani is the second option.

So here is the question:
What's the possibility, that the price for Alicante will drop (below 100€)? And how soon?
What's the possibility, that the price for Trapani will rise? (and latter drop?)

Thank you very much for your answers!

as prices normaly don't drop during the last 14 days befor take off it is unlikely that allicante will become cheaper than 100€. otherwise it's far more likely that trapani will rise during the next days than drop anyway, both prices are very expensive

I agree with Gruenmann, it is very unlikely that those prices will go down and quite likely that they'll rise.
Besides, tuesday 1st November is a national holiday in Italy (and many others european countries). Which means that more people are on the move at that time.

Thank you for your answers!

But in general:
What about the last minute? Are there no cheap tickets in order to "fill" the lasts seats?

Otherwise, Yeah I know about the holiday, but the problem is, that my holidays are at that time and I cant help it (ok, i could buy the ticked 3 months ago )

Thanks for the answers!

I am afraid there are none; the last minute tickets usually are most expensive.

absolutly correct, that's what i found out in my bachelor thesis as well you defently will not find find a significant price drop during the last days befor the flight. on the other hand, don't book 3 month in advance, that is to early! book one or two month ahead for the best price. or pray

Thank you for the advices guys.
