And southwest. That's why the PIT-BWI, PIT-ORD, PIT-PHX, PIT-MCO, PIT-FLL fares are what they are.
The Boston and New York are B6 related.

No shock there of course.
WN is the #2 carrier out of PHL these days, what incentive do they have to lower fares?
One thing I found interesting, it's about the same price to fly PHL-LGA R/T than to take the train from Penn Station in Manhattan.

Plus, if you live in Long Island, getting to Penn Sta. can take a bit longer. Same to 30th st. vs PHL. I live in South Delco very close to the DE state line and lets say PHL is easier for me to get too.

Not counting security and the endemic ATC delays, it's a bit faster.

My apologies. I grew up in Brooklyn and now live in Center City Philly, so my thinking tends to be a bit too urban-centric sometimes!
Nice thing about Amtrak is that you can show up at the station 5 minutes before the train leaves, be in NY or Philly in just over an hour, and be on your way. If you need to continue to Long Island, the trains are right there at NYC's Penn Station.
In your case, since you are closer to PHL than Center City, flying to LGA still could work.
But according to your listed "Programs", it looks like you drive to NYC anyway. (As do I, almost always.)

Some of the examples that are not B6-related are the same as the previous fares: BOS-ROC has been at $104++ one-way for at least a week now.

And yes, I do drive... I love the NJ turnpike
I usually take 295 -> 195 to save $3 since I hate paying anything more than I have to in order to drive on the NJ profit machine
