We get really, really excited when carriers announce new flight routes. This is for two reasons.
One: We cross our fingers that our big-city-with-a-small-city-feel hometown, Portland, will finally – FINALLY – get some more direct flights that don’t make us go through, say, Idaho.
Two: The intro fares for these new routes are generally uber-cheap.
While we still have to wait a little longer for number one (sigh), we are pleased to announce that JetBlue is rewarding New Yorkers and Texans with a new route starting on Sept 7, 2006. And, to celebrate, they’re selling tickets for only $99 one-way.
New York City, NY (JFK) to Houston, TX (Hobby). 14-day advance purchase is required. Sale fare must be booked by Jul 18, 2006, 11:59PM MST. Travel must be completed by Oct 31, 2006.
