Just booked the best flights I've had in 15 years - $430 RT direct Boston/SXM for January on JetBlue. It's crazy because I'm also looking for flights to LA in August, and they're through the roof! I miss the days of regulated airlines when the FAA set the prices and the Airlines had to compete based on service! You paid a little more but got decent service and didn't feel like you were constantly getting screwed around.


The government agency that regulated airlines was called the Civil Aeronautics Board. The FAA never regulated pricing or routes airlines were able to serve.
