    Isn't jet blue the flight that lands in the middle of the night? If so I would rather pay $325 and land at 1 pm.

    Not sure what date you're referring to, but right now Jet Blue gets in at 1:15am... And starting in May, they return, leaving STI at 6am instead of the usual 2:15am..

    Sun, 16 Apr 06
    Flight 731 9:40 pm Depart New York NY (JFK)
    1:15 am Arrive Santiago, DR (STI)(next day)

    For those who booked their flight for May make sure to go online to Jet Blue b/c they DID change their times for STI.

    Except for the holidays, I don't believe you'll have any problems booking upgrades.

    One of the reasons I fly to the DR is because even though I'm the lowest rung of their Elite status, I've be able to get standby upgrades on every flight but one (I've flown over 100 segments to the DR). In the US, I get upgraded one out of ten times.

    The only problem with flying first class is that I arrive drunk, and continue to drink when I arrive. It sort of makes the first day a blur.

    Just ask. I got upgraded to business class in British Airways in July. It was the best flight of my life, I didn't want the plane to land. If you're a frequent flyer they may comp it or just charge you a minimal amount.

    If you fly alot to the same place you will notice the counter staff to be the same people and just say hello to them and after time, you will be able to get upgraded because its available and they know you.

    Re: Continental airlines

    When I returned from POP on Continental in November I checked in online and it notified me at that time that an upgrade was available and asked if I wanted it.

    Re: Continental airlines

    So you have to ask for an upgrade? I don't have that high of en elite status with continental so I don't see anything when I check in for an upgrade. I only fly 4-5 times a year so I probably don't quality.
