Consider yourselves lucky if you can afford to travel to Caribbean destinations - most cannot. Millions out of work, with no work in sight - very sad....
I know a lot of people who live in a small condo with the wife and kids deal.
I don't think anybody can say that is beyond anything. When a company you have been working at for years in a fairly healthy company you don't expect to lose your job because somebody in the company wants to cut costs to keep their profits high. Those type of people far outnumber the people who lived beyond their means and couldn't adjust. Those people can blow me. I know i won't be taking another trip this year with the holidays coming up i want to save money so i can buy gifts for good friends and their kids in a tough spot. The holidays are always the toughest time of the year when things are bad.
AA has shitty schedules and prices to DR and Colombia no shit their cutting service.
Jetblue and Spirit are kicking their ass on schedules.
Airlines are making record profits this year so someone is traveling.
I just got the spirit credit card, comes with free membership to the $9 club. Maybe it will work or maybe I will be back with American.
I couldn't give a fuck less what airline I fly .
But not paying few hundred extra to get there later with AA.
I like Avianca and Jet Blue but cannot fly out of Detroit with either.
You cant even get a direct flight out of JFK on AA. what kind of bullshit is that ? Some of their flights even have 2 stops, from JFK to POP ?
I can get to fucking Kazakstan with less connections. Ny'ers dont put up with that shit. They should just stop doing the DR altogether, IMO.
Back like 8-10 years ago, They had direct flights , no , or am I hallucinating ?
Just bought a ticket on aa. NY to STI and POP to JFK with a layover on the way back. $387 not bad, considering the joy I get from the chicas.
"Panties are not the best thing in the world, but they are next to it"
Last I heard 2000 pesos. Depending on how I feel I might take caribe. 600 pesos including a taxi to the station. From NY to Dr should be around 350 unless you go near a holiday.
The taxes from JFK to the DR run about 133 round trip. So factor that in when booking a flight. Jet Blue flights usually run 120 round each way, about 240 and then you factor in the taxes and you get up to $370. Anything less than that and you got a good price.
If Spirit is making money with dirt cheap prices then obviously, other airlines are making even more money! I think it's because the price of oil has been dropping, yet they are not dropping fares. They use price of oil as an excuse to raise fares and are banking when oil prices drop.
Thats the first thing you said that makes any sense.
just kidding.
UPS and other Delivery Companies did the same type of shit, DRASTICALLY increased their prices when diesel was like $5 + a gallon, and NEVER dropped them back down when prices stabilized to like HALF that price.
The airline industry gets away with shit, no other companies would. I cant think of one , can you ?
Imagine you are sitting in a restaurant, and you are paying $50 for a meal, and the guy next to you brags he is only going to pay $20 for the exact same meal.
Hotels Sort of do it too, but not on the same level as airlines, where you are sitting literally next to each other as the exact same service is being rendered.
But i am not referring to what should be legal or not, i was referring to what shoule be acceptable practice in the marketplace.
Also weight overage Charges should be posted in HUGE PRINT (that should be a LAW).
So that you would know if you go 4 lbs over, its going to cost you an extra $100 and it doesnt matter if the wife or whoever is traveling with you is 20# UNDER weight , they will still hit you with the overage on the ONE suitcase, That Should be ILLEGAL.. Why the fuck do they even bother letting you check in together and asking "who is traveling with you ".. What the fuck is the point of that ?
8 So that trailer full of aluminum cans your mom saved and was going to donate to the Girl Scouts is empty in fact missing. You could have just sold the cans and left the trailer but this way I suppose you didn't have to unload them off the pallets and hell even a used trailer most have brought a few hundred. Someone already had a beer, a real big bucket of beer.
I totally made that up in case anyone didn't know.
PS American's schedule sucks
