Even if I go the taxi route from EWR I still save about $300.

    I agree. When I was doing SDQ, I was getting cheap flights, or flights that didn't take many miles to get there. I also like them if I'm just flying to Florida. But to get to Sosua, they just don't work for me anymore.

    Guess I've spoiled myself as I've gotten older. I want a convienent flight.

    Well if we are paying, then why not?

    When I bought a month ago, for Semana Santa, I had to hurry up and buy my tickets, because all the flights were selling out. As the flights were selling out, the price climbed $300 in 3 days. From $1100 to just over $1400.

    Re: EWR to JFK

    Use this site to route from NJ to NY:
    http://www.njtransit.com/sf/sf_servl...=TripPlannerTo
    It accounts for hours of service, but like the site says.. doublecheck!

    Once in Penn Station, take the LIRR (24/7).. up to $8.75 (peak)..about 40 minutes.. (E train is at least 1.5 hours.. on a good day!) Take any train to Jamaica. From there $5 airtrain to JFK.

    I thought about Asia. But two things came to mind. One, I'm not going all that way for just 7 or 8 days (I can't make that trip often like you can ), and two, when I do fly there, it will be First Class! That was over $3000 for me.

    Pill up the miles and fly free. Its all you can drink from start to finish.

    i do 10-11 day trips now no problem. when i first was going i could not imagine going for less than two weeks. the flight is nothing i have done it so many times. once you try it you will see it is not that bad unless you are a chain smoker.

    Just got the AA card. When the 40k miles get added, that will give me over 75k total. I'll be able to add at least 3k a month. When I have enough, and a couple weeks that I'm able to, I'll be there.

    Get another card in a year and another 40,000 miles.
