TL;DR

What the community said
The newest advice is to book a December trip by late June: within just one week, the same package reportedly went up by about RUB 10,000.

For January trips, waiting for prices to drop may be risky: one traveler said their package became RUB 35,000 more expensive within a month, and booking a bit earlier could have saved another RUB 10,000.

Another winter-season example: a traveler booked an early December holiday in July one year, and the next year booked even earlier, in late June, after tracking prices. The takeaway is that many people secure December trips well before autumn.
