I was trying to book a holiday to Europe, but the flight prices have doubled.
That is such a bummer. Summer is an expensive time to travel. I went to Ireland in July but I bought the tickets in March so they were pretty cheap. 
We were shooting for a fall trip, but it's looking like it won't happen now.  I guess I waited an hour too long to hit the confirm button
Oh that is so frustrating. I'm sorry to hear that. I am a travel agent- flight prices fluctuate by the hour- keep watching, they might go back down.
