Where did PDX<>FLL go?
Anyone have details why it’s off the schedule in June? Did this flight earlier this year and it was so convenient, sad to see it go :(
|
FLL seasonal reductions and no cruise business (yet).
|
Well, let the Alaskan planning gods know that I miss it dearly :)
|
And FLL was the go-to mileage run destination for awhile....but the flight options have been reduced and the price has gone up. I always went through SEA, LAX, or SAN since the direct flight from PDX earned less EQMs and was usually operated by an -800 which made upgrades even more difficult.

There's an existing thread on these Florida routes -- https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/alas...-tpa-gone.html
Some where meant to be year round and went to seasonal. A number were always seasonal when loaded last summer. I believe PDX-FLL was always seasonal, although they ended up discontinuing flights a bit earlier than originally scheduled. https://www.airliners.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1449367 |

They went and hibernated into the same cave as SAN-FLL.
|
We all know it was mileage runners and weekly discount codes that were keeping these flights afloat (get it? no cruises! afloat?! lol) .

Exactly though the CDC finally seems willing to relax some cruise policies

I think I was the lone first-class-buying passenger that just liked a convenient route to visit his sister. But $450 tickets don't justify the route. RIP PDX<>FLL.

This and SAN-FLL was originally added as a retaliation against B6 entering EWR-LAX/SFO/SAN + FLL-SEA/PDX. It's anyone's guess on the future of these routes.

For the concerned mileage runners, PDX-EWR returns soon.
