Airfare to SJU

[BigAft]

We will be cruising out out San Juan for the first time this Sept. Flying out of Michigan.

 

The current rates are around $ 350 pp via Spirit.

 

Does anyone have experience in the rates dropping between now and Sept? I guess the question is should I book now or wait. They were $ 224 pp six weeks ago.

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi, that sounds like a great rate to me. I flew from Atl to SJU in Nov. and my TA was able to get me a $400 rate, which was great, all other published rates were $700 or more. It's hard to know if prices will drop, but something tells me no, with the price of fuel and all.

 

Maybe some others have some thoughts.

Sorry to say, I wouldn't suggest waiting for a better price, especially if you are flying down on the day of departure.

 

There are so many cruise passengers flying into San Juan to catch their ship, that between the cruise lines blocking off seats and the passengers booking on their own, the seats go pretty quickly. Because of this the airlines don't usually have to discount the fares.

 

$224 is a great rate, but $350 isn't all that bad. Have you seen what the cruise line wants for their airfare? That may make you feel a bit better.

I would take it! We are paying over $700.00 to go down the day prior and our prices have steadly gone up. Good luck.

 

Aweigh we go

I would jump on that airfare. With gas prices the way they are, it gives the airlines license to charge whatever they desire. We were able to get airfare from Nashville to SJU by piecing together a SW flight to Fort Lauderdale and American to San Juan for about 300.00. That was 4 months ago when the best price I could find was 700. Don't wait too long.

I feel lucky we have JET BLUE! $552.00 round trip for myself and wife. All taxes and fees included. We are sailing on the Golden 10-17. Flying down that day and staying an extra day when we return. Have flown Jet Blue before. Comfortable leather seats, personal tv and friendly service. Try jetblue.com. Good luck!

Jump on that Spirit airfare, when we went on the golden in May the only reasonable fares were Spirit and Jet Blue. I'm 4 hour from Detroit so couldnt do Spirit.

[imsulin]

I agree! Take the $350.00 pp fare and run! I've flown to SJU many times, and usually try to use FF miles, but I've paid up to $800.00 pp to fly from SFO. SJU fares are generally very high. Yuk!
