Thanks everyone for your feedback!
So the Tuesday “rule” seems to have some truth in it after all! I just checked again and some SFO-MOBAY flight prices have dropped to as low as $527! – Unfortunately the times aren’t optimal. 6 AM departure – and late night arrival Montego Bay. I would lose an entire day. The red eyes flights are more expensive...
Ras Walleye and Mo – Lucky! How I *WISH* I could find prices that good! I would jump on them in a heartbeat! Thanks for the tip on Vayama.com. I’m going to give that a try too.
Captain Oil – Thank you for the link to www.itasoftware.com – I’ve been searching for that site! Someone had shared that with me a while back and I couldn’t remember the name of it! It's a really helpful site! Thanks!
Negrilaholic – I agree that right now American Airlines has the cheapest flights to MoBay. Better than Airtran! (which is surprising)
Rastagirl777- Thank you so much for the great tips and helpful advice.!
I didn’t realize that Southwest and Horizon don’t do Kayak. I’ll search those separately now.
I agree with you on the hidden fees! Now I only go with Carry-on because the baggage fees are ridiculous. I was also disappointed that there is a fee on Airtran in order to choose your seat on the plane!
...And all those websites that create false hopes by advertising a price that becomes DOUBLE that amount when taxes are added in. That is always a major disappointment.
The dates I’ve been looking for have been tentatively November -first week of the month- and late April 2012. I was hoping there was some secret formula for finding a super cheap flight but You’re right, it’s really luck of the draw!
Thanks guys!
