Does any US airline offer an open ticket (akin to a European InterRail ticket)?
Hello everyone.
I seem to recall finding a page on one of the US airlines websites a few years back that offered a ticket that would give you unlimited flights between US cities for a certain period of time (say 1 month.)
Did I imagine that, or does such a ticket exist now?
Many thanks,
Chris

I believe that each year JetBlue offers their "BluePass"/All you can Jet but it is typically only offered a limited number of passes for a limited time each year.
This year they even limited the options even more -departures from 2 airports (Boston and Long Beach) and the return to that same airport.

I'll keep an eye on their websites to see if they offer anything similar for 2012.

If you wanted to expand your exploration, Air Canada do flight passes that cover much of Canada and the US, although I believe they are for a longer time frame than 1 month - I think they are in 3 month increments.

Air passes are still around but not widely marketed (except thorugh non-US travel agents I would think). Don't think there were ever unlimited passes (but I could be wrong).

from the last offer from JetBlue. It seems every time they offer it they add more and more restrictions, but quite a few friends have used it to hit a bunch of baseball games and loved it.
