I have been monitoring airfare to Fort Lauderdale this fall. Prices have been so inflated. I could actually fly from the east coast to the west coast at a cheaper price than to fly to Florida from the north east coast.
About a month ago there was a news report that airfare was going to go down starting Aug 20 for Fall travel due to low plane purchases. I thought I would wait it out and see. Yesterday was my drop dead date though, I didn't feel that I could risk waiting any longer.
Not seeing much difference, I finally broke down and bought a couple of Jet Blue tickets for $350 a piece!!! So crazy. In 2009, I paid $170.....I could have bought the same amount for a family of four at that rate.
Today what comes in my email box???? 20% and 10% discounts on all Jet Blue flights with the special promo code! Of course this promo is during the time that I would have flown. And of course it cannot be used on prior purchases.
So instead of crying at my bad luck:
why waste the tears?
For those of you who still need to purchase some tickets for the fall, here is the page for the promo info:

Please let me know if you do use it. I would love to hear some happy stories.
