Airfare savings!!

I posted this originally on the transportation board, but thought it would be of some help here too!

I'm always looking for a bargain...

Our check card thru Wachovia (now Wells Fargo) is linked to rewards. I went to check how many points we have and what we can get. I usually go for gift cards, but I see a "travel" category. Within that there is "Airfare"... so I click on it and do a mock booking on the JetBlue flights I'm looking at.

5000 points = $62.50 off!!! So the flights I'm looking to book are right now $262.40, using our points, they go down to $199.90. Now... if they will just go down to $79 each way for my dates, we'll pay only $116.90 per ticket!!!

Just wanted to share this great discount with everyone!!!

I don't usually ise my bank rewards for their airfare discount. They charge a high fee to cash those in. I have found it better to cash in for the visa or mc gc and use that toward my trip.

You're right... I went thru the booking process and there it was on the final page. $24 per ticket. I can save more going the route you suggested. Thanks for the heads up!!!
