A few months back the airfare from Denver to Madrid for September was about $1600 (per Kayak). Today it's $806. Oh yeah! Gonna hit the Camino come this late summer.

Nice. Airfare and its pricing is one of the more curious systems I've come across in life.
 
I've always understood that your best pricing is about 6 weeks out. Either side of that you pay more. Now that has been for domestic travel in US.

Can anyone provide feedback on how far in advance to book for the Camino from US based on getting best pricing.

I too will be flying out of Denver when the time comes.

The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
I was able to book a round trip fare with different routes to-and-from through Expedia: Miami to Paris for the start, then Santiago de Compostela to Miami for the return. Just over $1,000. FYI
