You havn't give us any dates... so we really can't offer any specifically helpful suggestions.

However, your problem appears to be that you don't have a SAT. nite in SAN. (And the EWR-SAN cheapos are very demanding in this regard).

Therefore, you might try re-arranging things to outwit the unforgiving EWR-SAN fares:

Tuck a FLL-SAN RT inside a EWR-FLL RT! (Neither of these markets require the SAT. nite stay that the EWR-SAN fares do).

Therefore, your routing will look something like this: EWR-FLL-SAN (same day), then SAN-FLL (layover), then FLL-EWR (another day).

I'm assuming that you really don't need the LAS stopover...

I priced out a trip with imaginary dates and the fare came to $456. Only problem is that Q and T inventory on CO is very limited... and they might not be available on the dates that you have in mind.

Again, check for Q's and T's.

Good luck to ya.
