Prices went UP???
I haven't booked a ticket in about 3 weeks, I typically book in advance to get the best fare, and typically can get $49 Saver to $75 Value on a NYP -BWI one way trip, leave Friday and come home Sunday night or early Monday a.m. same price each way - and with my AAA discount the $75 is $67.50
I just went on to search a weekend in mid-November, and the new lowest pricing is:
Saver $52
Value $77
Flex appear to start at $151 - I think they use to be around $126 - but never really booked those so could be mistaken.
Also, premium pricing is lower than Flex - the quick searches I did had Flex at $151 and premium at $116 - strange to me.
Does anyone know when these prices went into effect? Not a huge jump on the Saver and Value, but still a bump is a bump.

Within the last week or so. $52 seems much higher than $49 to me, but that's a mental trick. $49 was a magic number on NEC for so long.
