Has anyone noticed or start booking trips for the upcoming weeks/months? I just tried to price a few trips from NYC/Newark to SJO and prices are significantly higher than last year. Regardless of connecting thru houston or direct to San Jose, CR...Continental definitely raised prices.

Anyone noticed or experienced the same?

So has American my cheep $235.00 Fare is no More. it is now $292.00..

yep..looks like its about 25% increase also from last year's price. Especially in this economy 25% increase in airfare is alot.

I just paid $513 round-trip. Houston to SJO in March.
**No change in price from last year.

This brings up another question..does anyone know why roundtrip fares from houston to SJO is considerably more than newark-houston-SJO? or just newark-SJO?

AA prices out of Chicago the same. I did see an increase on Continental.

Simpler, they may just want men to think they are as perfect as they want to appear to them, trying to hide what they consider to be the ugly truth about themselves. And I may be reading more into it than is there, but I do believe they consider the basis of the lies to be justified."

Seems American is raising it Price by the Minute. it's now $312.00 from Miami to CR..

AA Bos- Mia -Sjo
This fare is going up as well still some deals but real crappy flight times

AA has a lock on me I a..m about to get enough miles to be advantage

Had that on US air then they pulled way back on the Bos flights

Any Boston guys have any good options or does AA have us by the tea bag

Spring break + families traveling.
It tends to raise prices a bit until April or so.

Well, Spirit Air flies Boston to SJO but there's 2 layovers/ plane changes so don't know if that's a viable option. What's your tolerance for pain?

Yea......I have seen a definite increase in Continental fares from Chicago thru Houston to SJO. Last year could get at $300 RT. Booked about 4 weeks ago for trip Feb. 4-8 and paid $ 360. Just looked a couple of days ago for Continental flights in May and tickets were at $ 430.

AA still has some RT flights for $ 280, but with terrible times, sometimes even overnight connections......and you always have to factor in the AA russian roulette with mechanical delays.

The same Continental flight from Columbia SC to SJO I booked a couple of weeks ago has gone crazy . I looked last night and it is over 800 dollars for the same seat I paid 360 inc. taxes and FU fees. How can they justify such a increase. Just glad I pulled the trigger when I did.

Continental screws the people in Houston on the air fare to San Jose you get it cheaper out of newark and chicago

Flying into SJO, Jan29th, non stop round trip from Houston,$513.00. Continental Airlines, booked thru Travelocity.
