I always read and envy everyone here that gets good deals on flights..now I have one to share.

I just snagged non-stop RT tickets from EWR to Tampa for next August for $138 per person. We usually pay at least $200-225. There are 3 families travelling, so I called everone at work, got credit card numbers and booked them.

I kept reading the dates ans prices to make sureit was RT and not one way. In fact, my MIL kept saying "Are you sure it is RT?"

Just had to share

We're flying down early morning on a Wednesday (mid-week flights are cheaper) into MCO, coming home around 5:15 the following Tuesday for the same price - it's $59 each way = $118 round trip + taxes etc.
And I just booked it last week!
Continental has been cheaper than Jet Blue recently. I even sent Jet Blue an e-mail asking them why they can fly me DOWN to Orlando for $59 but I have to spend $89 to fly back. (Because for the same price I'd rather fly with them, but I won't pay extra to do it)
They sent the canned "thank you for your concern unfortunately we cannot match fares blah blah" e-mail back.
