Im looking to go down at the end of April after easter and prices to Santiago are $400-$500 plus whats going on here and it's more than Puerto Plata right now, and almost every fucking airline company is charging the same price from NYC. I would not mind paying this if I where going to DR for a 7-14 day trip but for quick 4-5 day trip it makes no sense for me to spend this. Could this be the end for us New Yorkers of our $273.00 ticket prices say it aint so?

They usually have great rates, but I don't have access to them. I'm sure that those that do will take advantage. Thanks, sicpup! When is your next trip down "south"?

Looks like airline prices are not going to get lower anytime soon they are going to rise since jet flue/gas is expensive now so if you are setting up a trip get your tickets soon if you want to save some money.

if they dont lower their rates there gonna have empty planes!People will fly less often for sure.business and first class will still be ok but coach is gonna take a beating. right now the planes are still pretty full cause people booked months ago. after it all catches up and they see things slowing up prices will go down and there will be specials or theyll have a fleet of planes sitting in the hanger.
