sea-pdx is no way a cheap flight. My partner books at least one a week (when not using her easypack) at they have never been less than $99 rt.
However, if some good looking sea-geg tickets come up, i'll be doing the hop via pdx.
I have committed all my AS flying for the year to AA and EXP.
So I have a few weekends left for AS or I'll just bag it and settle for MVP.
I haven't abandoned AS, in fact, I've flown them more than ever.
