    Orchid, You'll save a likkle cash on the taxi ride to Negril, at least, and we will save you more by buying that first Mojito at the Parrot! Looking forward to meeting up with you at sangsters!

    I agree on the arbitrary statement....and for all I know, there could be a dip at some point. If I didnt have to connect to a "hub", I would probably have waited it out a little longer. I think I panicked a little yesterda (lol) when I saw that the connections to Toronto were pretty much gone. Life would be a whole lot easier if I could get a direct flight!

    See you in Jamaica Islander!!!

    If we were in a hub like Toronto or Montreal we would be able to get on an American airline for much cheaper but having to fly to the hubs puts a lot of extra $$$ on the flights. I am happy you are going. Enjoy

    Wow, even from Boston it has almost doubled, fuel has NOT doubled! So much for the US Air and American Air lines merger!

    "I was so excited last year when they announced that apple going to fly Jamaica out of Rockford, but then I saw the price"

    Us also, that would eliminate 2 days of travel for use, we live 20 minutes or so from that Airport, and we would go to Chicago to sleep each way.......I heard flights are not full, I bet they wont renew their contract....The airport "subsidizes" the Airlines to make up for the empty seats, that is why the empty seats, rather than sell them a a reduced cost (charters use to do this) as the departure date grows closer, they take off, with the subsidence of the Airport money, and with out the extra weight of people sitting in those seats and luggage...equals less fuel needed for the same trip...MORE PROFIT.........the world is a bottom line place $$$$$
    nobody passes the savings along to the consumer any more
    the Airport has had a history of such deals.......

    I know that West Jet always has a seat sale in September for Early Winter flights (Up to February) and it should be appearing in Travel sections & their Web site soon. We are going with Sunwing from Ottawa Direct this year for $550.00 (all inc.) for a week in December.They offer meals & champagne & OJ for Breakfast & Wine with dinner and nice big comfy seats. Watch for the Seat sales.!!

    Just clicked around a bit, and the fares from Los Angeles during Christmas time are actually quite reasonable.
