Peter Greenberg: Discounted Flights to Hawaii
My husband and I are planning to go to Honolulu this December. We'll be staying with family, so we only need airfare. Do you think fares will go down closer to the date, or should we book now?

Is booking through a travel site different than dealing with airlines directly as far as refunds?
