I haeard about Farecast the other day – Farecast is an interesting piece of technology that tries to answer that question, by analysing past price movements and predicting future patterns. http://www.farecast.com if you are interested in taking a look. Quite US-centric at the moment.

Always one for a bargain have just tried your site to price an itinerary that I booked a few days ago. I paid £2551 (US3826) for 1st class to Far East. I used AA web site and searched using price and schedule rather than schedule as well as all carriers criteria. This beats hands down the farecast.com price of over US5500.

So it falls at the first hurdle. Not good. I could be charitable and say that the technology (and the data) is obviously at an early stage. Interesting concept nonetheless.
