I don't know where you are looking but all twelve that we purchased are direct .................. If you are looking around LABOR DAY, all those are already sold...............direct flights that is.............

There are 3 to 4 direct flights per day from STI to JFK and JFK to STI depending on the month............... I always seem to be able to get prices much less than what I see people talk about here....................probably cause you have to LEARN HOW TO USE THE WEBSITE CORRECTLY.

I just put in almost every return date possible from aug 10th on and the FIRST date available at those rates for a direct flight is sept 15th....so 4 flights a day times over 30 days...and no SPECIAL fares left already????

they probably offer 2 seats per plane at those rates and all of the are taken by friends of people who work at AA I bet....

its just an AA scam.

.........thats probably right...............

..........they probably are all taken til sept...............if you look at the available seats from now til then almost EVERY seat is FULL on all the flights from STI to JFK........IF THE FLIGHTS ARE FULL, OF COURSE THERE WON'T BE ANY SPECIALS....the special has been posted on AA for at least 1 week to 10 days, and I know that we got emails from AA about it over 1 week ago too. I know that when those emails go out, the soonest flights tend to fill up rather quickly. ...............but check the links and you'll find plenty for the rest of Sept., Oct, Nov and Dec...................All direct flights...

..........AND I wasn't trying to be "arrogant", "THANATOS".......I posted the link to both flight schedules that show plenty of "direct" flights for you to find and you replied that "all you saw were connecting flights"..............I didn't see any......

I wasn't the one that made the mistake and I am not the one who called anyone an "idiot".

The airlines do not assign just 2 seats on these special fare tickets, they usually come out from a specific fare bucket, and on DR flights the lowest fare bucket is Q and if no Q seats are available, it will go onto different letter (N,S,etc) fares, resulting in a slightly higher price.

I recently bought a ticket for $330 (including tax) August 23-28 and the return results with an overnight stay in Miami, which I don't have a problem with.

The special you mentioned, and I'd had checked on a daily basis for 2 weeks, was for $319 not including taxes. For connecting flights it was $202. During these weeks when I was checking the prices for the same flights (same dates) went from $330 to the $700's. Again, those fare buckets are crucial in finding the lowest price and sometimes it pays to constantly check.

One way is to use the dates flexible option during reservation on AA.com, allowing you to see the lowest fare quoted on that specific route. Another way is (if you're a frequent traveler) to use expertflyer.com

Jet blue has taken a nose dive in customer satisfaction since the big east coast snow storm a few weeks ago where passengers waited on the run way for over 10 hours to get off the plane.

And because of that, they created some type of customer rights act, which you'll be compensated in money vouchers if you are waiting on the plane for any more than 2 hours. I think its $50 for 2 hours and increases for each additional hours. Today in NYC we had about 2 or 3 inches of snow, and I heard Jet Blue just cancelled all their flights today and I think they did it just to make sure they don't get screwed on that "customer bill of rights" thing.

Why do you have such an attitude? I was piggybacking off of djlawlaw's comment about

That's all, no more, no less. Why you are getting riled up and flustered over how many flights Jetblue canceled is beyond me, unless you have something personal against me. I made a mistake that Jetblue cancelled all of their flights and CORRECTED IT!! No big deal, so please don't make an issue about it. Hopefully this matter is resolved between us. Have a wonderful day
