Cheap shtein

[Rome]

I got my free Kellogg's coupons in the mail today.  They had a recall and you needed to give them your name and address and they send you one free coupon for every cereal you purchased that was "bad".

Special K is on sale now buy one/get one so I get four free boxes of cereal tomorrow.

Score!

There are some seriously sweet prices on there.  I think it was last month they had a promotion where you paid a couple hundred bucks and could fly as much, and anywhere Jet Blue flies for like a month or something.  You just show up at the airport, pick a destination and get on the plane.  If they run that promotion again, I'd have a hard time passing it up.

yeah that jetblue sept. - oct. thing is amazing, pays for itself with 2 trips. i missed it by about 3 hours this year.

I guess they did that promo last year too.   A couple of radio sports talk guys out here were talking about how they bought a pass last year and spent that month just flying around the country going from one sporting event to another, often times hitting up 2 different games in 2 different cities in the same day.

How is it that JetBlue doesn't fly in and out of Philly?

It's retarded that I have to fly on Southwest which absolutely sucks, btw.

[Sgt PSN]

I think it took Philly a while to get Southwest as well, didn't it?  Wouldn't really surprise me at all if Philly doesn't have JetBlue because PHL is being difficult/trying to get more money out of it. 

Southwest isn't bad.  Their rates are almost always equal to or less than other airlines.  And when you factor in that they don't charge you for baggage, that's approx an extra $40-50 that stays in your pocket.  And changing flights is easy and usually free.  Sure, seat assignments are first come, first serve and there are basically no amenities on the plane to speak of, but it's still one of the best deals out there.

Wah...

[ice grillin you]

you wont find a lot of jetblue flights out of southwest hubs...thats why both bwi and philly dont have many jetblue options...because jetblue models their airline after southwest and are a direct competitor im guessing southwest pays those airports a nice chunk of change to limit jetblues availability

SWA is more expensive out of Houston for Vegas and Philly (and practically any other place I want to fly) so I always fly on Continental.

Speaking of which....people are idiots on planes. The carry on luggage thing is a mess. I wanted to slaughter about 5 people on the flights to and from PHL this weekend.

[Diomedes]

they ought to disallow carry on luggage altogether

[PhillyPhreak54]

I agree.

It holds the damn plane up.

People with bags the size of mini-fridges trying to heft them above, gate agents not enforcing carry on rules (although the PHL lady was on her game yesterday morning), iceholes who sit in the back throw their shtein up in the front bins and all the space gets taken up.
