JetBlue February 2007

[bicker]

$257 roundtrip from Boston to Orlando. Get 'em while they're hot.

 

[DizGeek]

? It says they arent booking out that far.

Their website might take a few hours to register the new flights. Check back later or tomorrow.

 

[DizGeek]

So how did you get it? Or did you call them?

 

[bicker]

I received email from an airline email newsletter.

You can book them through www.Kayak.com, for somereason they get them earlier. Once you search for your flights and pick one, use their link that says "purchase at JetBlue" or what ever. I was just checking prices, Portland ME to MCO for Feb.

As of 10am today (monday 7/31) roundtrip boston to mco on JetBlue is still $617 on Kayak. Has anyone tried calling? I was hoping for around $200 but with the way the fares have been lately I think I'd jump on that $257.

Really? That's too bad I'm getting $236 on KAYAK out of Portland ME... usually Portland is more than BOS. Dates 1/30/07-2/13/07 I just have to decide whether to jump on $236 ea for 3 people JB out of Portland, or wait for SW Ding and drive 3hrs each way to fly out of Manchester. OH my head.

Well, from Newark/MCO or JFK/MCO for 2/2 or 2/3 to 2/6 is $217, which is decent. Of course not as cheap as this year. Of course my mom is coming w/ us and she's currently on vacation in Alaska and I won't hear from her until a bit later on today. I hate to lose the $99 each way fare but I don't expect them to be up on JetBlue for another day or so.

Anyone know the policy on credits for JetBlue? If the fare drops, I know I can get one, but when do I have to use it? 1 year from when I book (which would be today or tomorrow) or 1 year from when the credit is issued? We are going down next November and I've had those tickets for a while now so I'm sure I can use the credit either way, but of course the longer you have the better.

Thanks.

One year from the date the purchase is made. I think it has to do with not carrying liabilities over too long.

$924.00 round trip for my son and I.
(2/14-2/24)

I'll have to keep my eyes open, hopefully the prices will drop. They can't get much worse.

 

[bicker]

They can't get much worse.

Well, don't say that. There's no reason to think that we've reached an upper-bound on airfares.

Well, I finally did it. Once Jet Blue came out with $617 rt, I booked roundtrip on Delta from JFK to MCO for Pres week at $467.10. We decided to go down a day earlier and take a 3pm flight, as Delta had that on special. We figured with the extra money we saved from not taking the early morning flight on Sun. (almost $200) we could stay at Pop Century for a night and get a full day on Sun.

I guess I just got sick of looking all the time.

Well, I hesitated and lost. The $217 fare from Newark is gone for the morning flight down and the afternoon flight back. If I want something now, I either have to pay $262 or change times around totally. It's only a short trip for ds's birthday and my DM is coming so I'm trying to keep costs down. I can book Delta for $217 out of JFK, but I hate Delta. They always change times and I hate their planes.

What do I do? I'm so worried about waiting and not getting anything decent.

Anyone know when the flights will be available through Jetblue's site? I remember the last flights I booked, when they were only available through Kayak they were outrageously priced, but once the flights showed up directly on Jetblue's site they were much cheaper. Right know it's showing round-trip for JFK to MCO as over $1000 for 2/17-2/22. There's no way I'm paying that.

 

[bicker]

Kayak typically has the least expensive fares. If you're not getting good fares that way, then you probably won't do better through JetBlue's web site -- those fares should be available there by the end of the week.
