Sounds like a reasonable deal:
PHL-SJU web fare, v class (appears upgradeable) $155.
taxes and such = 194.90.
Plus, a chance to fly in F on the A330 if they don't swap it out.
Looks like good availability through the Fall.

While you will get to fly in F on the 330, remember that the service from PHL-SJU isn't Envoy service, just Envoy seating. It's domestic/Caribbean service. But the plane is wonderful!

Can we all book it for a RT on Aug 8th?
Too bad it priced out at $1100.

Watch out. If something goes wrong on a T/A flight that day or night before, the equipment WILL get swapped to an A320 or A321. Happens VERY often. Do not book these flights for the A330.

I've booked these several times and always been upgraded and always on the 330. While I haven't checked the details on these fares, in the past there was a three day stay requirement. This may be what is happening here if your looking at a R/T on the same day.
And yes in early June one of the birds developed an oil leak and had to land at MCO. The A330 flight was on a A321 for the next couple of days while it sat in MCO

Same day roundtrip was also $360 - PHL-SJU (330) -CLT-PHL.
I took the trip (vacation) in April and on the return the 330 was swapped for a 767.
