Dallas → Rio de Janeiro flights

Fares cluster near $475 — but a small sample limits confidence

Key takeaways

• Median fare is $475, with the bottom quartile ($461–$475) representing the bulk of observed prices.
• High of $608 pulls the spread to 32%, meaning occasional spikes well above typical pricing exist.
• Low end of $461 suggests a realistic target price if you're flexible.
• Only 7 daily snapshots were sampled — this is a thin dataset, so patterns should be treated as directional, not definitive.
• No dominant carrier was identifiable from the data, so airline-specific booking strategies aren't supported here.

The full picture

The data shows a tight cluster of fares between $461 and $475 for most of the sampled days, with the median landing at $475. That's a reasonably tight bottom quartile, suggesting that a sizable share of search days returned fares close to the floor. However, the high of $608 stretches the overall spread to 32%, which is a meaningful gap — it tells us that while typical pricing is stable, outlier spikes do occur and can meaningfully inflate what you pay if you search on the wrong day.

With only 7 daily snapshots, we don't have enough coverage to confidently describe a booking-window pattern — whether prices soften further out or closer to departure isn't something this sample can support. What we can say is that the $461–$475 band appears to be the realistic target range based on observed data, and treating $608 as an outlier rather than the norm seems reasonable given how clustered the rest of the sample is.

No dominant carrier emerged from the data, so we can't speak to airline-specific pricing behavior or schedule-driven fare patterns on this route. The honest caveat here is sample size: 7 days is well below what we'd want for confident claims about booking timing or day-of-week effects. Treat the $475 median as a useful anchor price, but verify against live search closer to your travel dates, especially given the visible spike to $608 that shows this route can get notably more expensive without obvious warning in this dataset.
