Anyone ever used Priceline for flights to Cozumel?

[bruehlt]

So far the cheapest airfare to cozumel I found was through travelocity.com (about $243, not including taxes + arrival and departure fees, which would be another $200) - HOWEVER most of the days they offer fares are sold out. So, I was thinking of using priceline. Or, does anyone have any suggestions? I am fed up with the "airline" industry crying about running empty planes, when the price of airfare is so damn high!

if someone tells you taxes and departure/arrival fees will cost you $200 for a $243 ticket they have got to be kidding. no way.

Got mine - BOS to CZM on US Air for $300. The tax thing sounds wrong to me - should be more like $90. If you have anything below $400 net, that's a pretty good deal.
