Should I wait to book my flight

Should I wait to book my flight?
My husband and I are flying to Reno, NV in early March. We are flying Southwest out of Milwaukee, WI. Right now the flights are 218/person to Reno, and 154/person to fly back. It just recently went up in price and I was wondering if there is a certain day of the week I should book, or if I should wait until February. I know that booking 2 weeks before is a bad idea. Let me know what you think!

Book as early as possible

It's very unlikely prices will come down, but almost certain that they will increase the longer you delay. So, "no", you really shouldn't wait.

Book now. March isn't far away, so I suggest you book your tickets as soon as possible. Those fares seem pretty reasonable given the route you're flying. It is unlikely that the fares will go down. Have a great trip!

i was told that IF southwest cuts their prices its on TUESDAYS. this has held true when i look on tuesday as compared to any other day of the week but it doesn't happen EVERY week. in my opinion you should book ASAP if you'd like to test out the tuesday "discount" theory then go for it but if the price is the same then book it anyways! cuz really the price is only going to increase the longer you wait and in fact the flight home will get more expensive if you wait much longer.
