So, I am rescheduling this trip for the 3rd time. We were supposed to go in April had to cancel, then we were supposed to be there right now, had to cancel. Well they say the 3rd time is a charm right??
Anyhow, I have a decent credit w/ Jetblue. DS is going into JR High. In the past it was never a problem to miss school for family vacations as it was okay w/ the school and the school didn't have an attendance policy. Well, it's still excused but now he will have an attendance policy. That being said-- I have to travel by May 1st and I have to try and work around school somewhat.
So, Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter are out. I was looking at President's Day week. Yep I know it will be crowded. I was thinking of flying out the week before on Wednesday after school (then he only misses 2 days). Then flying back late the following Wednesday during President's Day week. Anyhow, the airfares are currently $94 each person each way. Did anyone else fly midweek to midweek last year and remember what the fares were??? Is this a good deal. I will be over my credit by something like $60 and I really didn't want to put any additional money towards it. I'm thinking maybe of going around MLK weekend and holding out for a sale. I'm sure they'll have some great rates for January.
