Woo hoo!!!
With service now available (or soon to be) from Raleigh, DC and Richmond, connecting service through NY, affordable trips to Santiago are now available for us Mid Atlantic coasters!!! (I live in VA)
RDU-STI and return 9/9/06-9/18/06 Flight down leaves Raleigh at 6AM and arrives at 1:30 PM. Return flight leaves STI at 2:30 PM and gets to RDU at 11:30. No middle of the night arrivals!
The best thing is that the total cost, with all the taxes and fees is $340 RT!
Only about $25 more than the flight from JFK-STI alone. Same rates from RIC or IAD (Richmond or DC Dulles). Same trip as of today on AA is just about double.
I'm hoping AA will match the fares so I can continue with their FF mile program, but if not......... screw-em!!!!
