Jet Blue has a lot of cheap flights to and from New York City (although I think they only fly from Houston and Austin). If you're not already a member of Travelzoo, that's a good idea too (they give you updates on fare sales for most major airlines). <br /><br />Other things my mom has taught me: most flights are cheapest on Wednesdays and Saturdays (except holidays). Also, ticket sales usually start on Tuesdays and end on Thursdays (especially American!). So never wait until the weekend to buy a ticket and always check back on a Tuesday before you buy something.<br /><br />Haha, this post is so random. But I feel like I need to share the little wisdom I've gleaned so far.<br /><br />Delta Love,<br />SarahSarahnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8681720755013779129.post-13886248674014957842010-12-06T13:59:31.796-06:002010-12-06T13:59:31.796-06:00I can relate to the saving time AND money!

(Just as long as you're under 25!) But it's not always cheaper, so be sure and compare prices, just in case.<br /><br />Another thing is to sign up for Southwest airline's emails, and they'll let you know when fare sales are out! It's hard to find a direct flight sometimes, but it's not as expensive, and as a former intern, I'm loyal to SWA! :-)<br /><br />Vacation days are definitely the best--enjoy!Shayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10671231933736910896noreply@blogger.com
