Some great deals - typo in text states valid 4/20; in graphic shows the correct date of 4/23
I guess they've got some mid-week inventory that's selling slowly. Sounds like a great deal if you're able to travel on Tuesday or Wednesday, only!

I looked. There are definitely $89 SEA-JFK seats midweek in May, and plenty of seats from JFK to shorthaul Blue cities in the $29-$44 range. I think it's the first time I've responded to a B6 sale and actually found some evidence of it.

IAD-JFK $29 each way. Can't ask for a better deal than that!

If people are willing to pay a premium on peak days such as weekends, why not charge regular fares? After all, it is a business.

But it should be pointed out that the peak days are Monday/Thursday/Friday/Saturday/Sunday.
So I guess every day is a peak day, except for Tuesday and Wednesday, right?

It's more of a plateau than a peak :)

I'm a bit lost -- where's the dishonesty? Travel terms are clearly indicated, and this kind of fare sale is perfect to give the business day traveler an opportunity to try out the product for rock bottom prices.
A sale is a sale... be it for Tuesday and Wednesday, or any day of the week. It's certainly a better offer than charging full price on these dates, wouldn't you say?
