Belle3388 - yes some of these sale fares are for atlanta too- I was looking for a fare to LasVegas and they have the fare for $158 from west palm beach(not ATL though) so I don't know if it is worth the extra money to fly from atlanta to WPB then to LV; if you go to the url Doc posted above you can select sale fares from Atlanta on there
(the url for bestfares.com not webflyer)
Thanks for the tip Doc!

anyone have sugestions on how to get cheap rt fares to WPB?

Can these fares be booked by anyone or just Bestfares?

Thanks

On which airline is the Newark-Ft. Lauderdale special? I am not a member of Bestfares, so I cannot access the details.

Just booked the boys and I on a trip to California for Thanksgiving. Not bad: BHM-SFO for $221 on NW.

clearly. i've been checking prices to the west from islip on long island. so far, us, co, & aa are pricing around $230-240 including tax. unbelievable. everything out of ewr, lga & jfk is around $440.

And you can usually drive back from Islip in the same time it takes to get out of JFK

Details please. Mrs. Onedog needs 2,400 miles by July 31 to make the AA Platinum Challenge and r/t LAX to ISP would be just fantastic

Thanks.

Here is a comic strip from AirJet Airline World News. I thought it was kind of funny in light of the topic of this thread:

"Boeing merger finally goes too far as airliners get equipped with sidewinder missles for this summer's airfare war."

The US Air weekend sale Doc posted is a great way for FlyerTalkers in DC, Boston, or NYC to rack up some segments & miles on BOTH US Air and AA. The $79 fare for shuttle flights from DCA to LGA actually works out to $90 once taxes/departure fees are included, but it is still a cheap roundtrip, particularly since no overnight is required. The fare qualifies for the US Air 1000 mile on-line booking bonus plus you get at least the minimum 500 miles each way in your Dividend Miles account. The best part is that members of AAdvantage who are registered for the US/AA Shuttle promo also receive 500 miles each way and the segments count toward tier status on AA!

A single roundtrip will net me almost 4600 miles when I include my US Air Silver Preferred and AA Platinum bonuses. Not bad for $90.

Vangaurd too just announced a fare sale!
