Delta Airlines seems to be having a sale

[seh750]

Been watching ticket prices for our trip to PP. Same flights I took the last couple of years usually run around $1100 for the two of us (coming from the west coast). Just booked them for $880 directly on Delta's website.

If you fly Delta, might want to go take a look.

I just landed a flight for $217 this morning after a month of it being nearly $400.

Agreed - Delta has some great prices. Airtran (now a division of Southwest) also seems to have some sales to compete with Delta. Check with Hipmunk to get the best deals

I'm not seeing the sales here. I checked yesterday and flying from DC-Balt is still $270-280. The only deal I see in the area is driving down to Richmond where I can get $200 round trip on AirTran.

But DC? No one wants to discount anything right now.

Thanks for the info. My flight from CA was over 500.00 a couple of weeks ago and just got it yesterday for 428.00 so they did lower the prices.

Delta from San Jose , Ca to ATL - $427.00 plus bag fee's

Southwest from San Jose, to ATL - $343.00 no fee's

Long time Delta flyer switching to Southwest because they fly into ATL now

Thanks for the tip off. I got a round trip flight from Tampa for $127.

I saw that too... I'm sorta tempted to wait a couple weeks to see if it drops even more (since it likely won't start rising again until mid-august), but I guess it can't really drop too much lower anyway. I was considering driving this year, but $128 round-trip makes flying significantly cheaper than gas + parking.

Flights are at $331 out of LAX. Better than the $350+ they've been seemingly all year, but still not quite the $200 we paid last year

 

[Dustro25]

Still $350 from Sea-Tac. But better than the $400+ it has been. last year was around $310 I think..

 

[pack1fan4life]

AirTran for me, 226 round trip.

Y'all can thank me for the great fares this week. I finally broke down a couple of weeks ago and paid the "Thank You Sir, May I Please Have Another?" rate from Phoenix on U.S. Airways. Would have been $100 less if I'd waited!

Southwest just opened up some lower prices. This is for 2 tickets from SFO to ATL... how awesome is this...


Air Total:
$666.40

I opted to fly out of Richmond this year, because flights out of Dulles and National never went much below $300. I got a roundtrip flight from Richmond for $107. TOTAL. Worth driving 2 hours to a different airport? Hell yeah! Plus parking is cheaper there than the DC airports, and my mom is about halfway so I will probably stay the night there before I head out.

Unfortunately, I missed out on that one. (I remember when it was $130.) Had to pay $260 out of Reagan.

DAMN! Wish Steve and I got those prices. (We're flying out of Richmond too.) I guess we should have waited.

 

[Dragongrrrl]

Well, a lot of it has to do with me flying down on Tuesday and coming back home on Monday. Richmond was still way cheaper than either DC airport though.
