American Slashes Fares Across the U.S. - $98 & up -R/T

[DandyDon]

US traveling scuba divers often think of trips that require passport, but some great diving locations are found off of Florida, North Carolina, California, Washington, and even Texas among the ones I have enjoyed. For travel by June 25, great deals have been announced by American, which may be matched by others: Net SAAver & Special Offers - Edit: If that approach doesn't work, just try booking on AA.com. See post 3 below...

These deals come with many requirements, limits, add-ons, etc. of course. Spring Break is blacked out, and it ends just as peak vacation travel starts. Days other than Tuesday Wednesday will be higher.


Terms and Conditions

1. * Fares shown are for round-trip Economy Class travel purchased on AA.com, and are in U.S. dollars. Fares shown are valid for travel Tuesdays and/or Wednesdays. Other travel days are available at an additional cost. Fares are subject to change without notice.
2. * Fares do not include (a) a federal excise tax of $3.50 per U.S. domestic flight segment, defined as one takeoff and landing, of a passenger's itinerary; (b) up to $18 per round trip in local airport charges; and (c) September 11th Security Fee of $2.50 per enplanement originating at a U.S. airport.

The fares are nice, but nowhere I want to go from Los Angeles. And I think American needs a new webmaster... what a clutzy way to present the information, having to wade through pages of fares from other airports just to get to LAX. Much simpler ways they could have implemented that for the customer. Thanks for posting them, Don.

Yeah, and when I tried to turn those pages to LBB-LAX on 5/23-5/27, I hit a dead end.

Alternatively you can simply go to Airline Tickets and Airline Reservations from American Airlines | AA.com - book what you want and get a fast quote. Looks that worked, for $228 since one day is not a Tuesday or Wednesday, plus taxes = $268. Continental wants $316 total and for me, it's worth the differences for my extra benefits.

I don't know what it was before...?
