cheap airfare last minute deals

Did airfare costs go up?
I don’t fly very often but the last time I flew from Texas to Missouri which isn’t far at all just around 58 minutes or more on May 11, 2009
1 Adult: $73.49
Taxes & Fees: $16.11
Total: $89.60
Now I’m going back March 5, 2010 same website, same trip, same details, one-way. And the total is now a huge $338! total cost for a one way short trip with nothing extra.
Did i miss something that happened in the world? Stumble on some sort of flight deal last time? Because i don’t remember of any deals it was just a plain cheap, 1 person, short trip.
if anyone has any answers that could calm my mind that would be great ^^
Try a different website. Kayak.com shows a one-stop flight from DFW to St. Louis for a little over $100 and non-stop flights for around $140. If you’re flying from a smaller city to another small city, expect fares to be higher than they are from major airports because of less demand.
Try Kayak.com or other similar websites and different airline websites and see what you come up with:
