Traveling from Dallas Texas, I would consider leaving from Houston airport if it was cheaper

Laguardia is the closest, but I could always get off at JFK

The earliest date I could leave is the 14th- that weekend

The latest date I could return is the 29th

 

THANK YOU!

I think bigjimslade found the best deal. I see a 8AM departure on Dec. 16 and a 10:05 AM return on Dec. 29 on Southwest (Love Field - LaGuardia) for $184. That will be very tough to beat at that time of year. The departure date has some flexibility but the return flight is only available on the 29th (for the $184 round-trip fare), so don't delay.

[heatherkw]

Sorry I don't see that any Southwest flight from Hobby or Dallas to LaGuardia or JFK at all. Just Long Island! Have you tried Jet Blue? We love them. True Blue converts.They fly Hobby to JFK, 3 flights a day. Hobby to JFK the 14th15th16th 79.00 then on the 28th and the 29th they have the return flight for 117.00 Total 196.00 not sure if thats worth it to travel but its a little cheaper and their planes are great.

Have you checked Farecast.com? It's worth checking out.

[Deal Grabber]

Hey let me know when ya arrive.We will meet for drinks(LOL).

[ashemgra]

Try Jetblue.com and see if they have anything...we can fly from Tampa to Boston for $60 each way. They have direct TV for each person....keeps the kids busy if nothing else! Have had no problems with them!

[ms_mckenna]

That is an awesome deal Jim! We flew for around that this summer from DFW to LGA and that was the best to be found then. I wish Love field would have been open to NYC then. We love southwest!
