If the price for a flight to a popular area during the summer months doubles, the price is unlikely to go down with more time. It's possible that the price will drop some a few weeks before the departure date, but its equally or more possible that the flight will simply fill up or get more expensive. I very much doubt the price will un-double itself. If you have any flexibility about your departure date or time, it's possible that flights that leave a day or so earlier or later, or at different hours, may be substantially cheaper, so be sure to check. Was this a nonrefundable fare? If you paid with a credit card, see if you have any sort of trip cancellation insurance. There are probably still one way flights from other carriers that are significantly cheaper, so if you can it might be easiest to just dump the AA return flight.

rear end posted:Yeah I'm flexible with the date, and I checked. There isn't that big of a difference. I'm not sure how AA works but for many airlines, when you change your flight, you pay some fee + the difference in fare. In the event that you change to a cheaper flight, your net cost will be the change fee, minus the difference in fare. So, if you change to a flight that is more than $200 cheaper than your original one, it amounts to a partial refund even if you never take that flight. So if you can find some AA flight, any flight, substantially cheaper than the one you've currently booked, the fare difference - change fee might still allow you to recover some costs.
