airfare compare

I book arrival and departure flights separately and I guess it helps dampen the shock. I spend what I think is reasonable per flight. For my upcoming trip I booked nonstop for less than a one stop and paid less. For that I'll pay a little more than last year rather than waiting to see if ether will go down!

ETA: anyone who can afford to chose Delta is richer than me! I was forced to fly them this past summer and it HURT! Very very nice flight and in flight experience but honestly, they want almost 4 times as much as JetBlue for my same flight! Ridiculous!

We can't do Jet Blue. I wish we could. I hate flying Delta, every time we have we have been delayed in Atlanta. We prefer Southwest. We connect through Orlando. Their rates were up $250 per person this yr. I would love to have a nonstop option. With paying baggage fees Delta was cheapest this yr.

We only fly Delta because of the points. I'm getting 3 tickets for a little over 400 US thanks to a LOT of home improvement done this summer and SkyMiles bonuses. :) I don't particularly care for Atlanta, as we usually are also delayed. However, for this price, I'll suck it up!

JetBlue flight 193 out of Boston on April 21 is down to $197 right now!

I wonder with all the damage to other Caribbean island's will ticket prices go up to Jamaica ?

Last week I payed $525.00 nonstop out of MPLS, for Feb. through Delta. Last year it was $450.00

At least when my hubs retires we can play around with our dates. Maybe even drive to another airport.

We fly out of Lincoln in Feb. for about $550. Likkle more $ but we don't have to stay in Omaha overnight and pay for vehicle storage.

Just booked late Jan out of ORD nonstop both ways for $530.

All of the airlines have lost their collective minds. I'm a big guy, and fly first just for the comfort of myself, and those around me. We paid ~$2600 at the early part of the year for our tickets. I wanted to add three days to the front end of the trip, and contacted American to make the change. With the change fee ($400, fully expected -- and a charge I was willing to pay) the additional cost was another $2100. Essentially, the prices are almost double what they were when I booked. Their logic was that my return flight (the one I'm already booked on and not changing) was crowded, so the fee was higher.

I won't be adding any days to the trip this year!
