I bought my tickets this week, $885 on Delta/KLM. I'm flying from Richmond to Strasbourg (via JFK and Amsterdam) in mid-December then taking a train to Berlin on January 5 and returning to Richmond from Munich via Atlanta.
When choosing your seats be sure to check www.seatguru.com. It will keep you from regretting your seat choice on any flight.
Has anyone else gotten their tickets? Are you finding good prices? Please respond in the comments.

Suggested Reading List
Dear Fellow Participants,
I'm posting here a couple of reading and film options for this fall - and maybe even for the long transatlantic flight.
Books:
Brian Ladd's "Companion Guide to Berlin" - as advertised, it is a good guide to the city of Berlin
Wladimir Kaminer's "Russian Disco" - This is a collection of short vignettes written by one of Germany's hippest young (immigrant) writers.
Mary Fulbrook's "A Concise History of Germany"
Peter Schneider's "The Walljumper"
Herta Mueller - anything by her, she's the most recent Nobel Prize for Literature winner
Films:
"Comedian Harmonists" (1997)
"In July" (2000)
"Goodbye Lenin (2003)
"Go for Zucker" (2004)
"The Lives of Others" (2006)
"Sophie Scholl. The Final Days" (2005)
