I called JetBlue about that. There was a technical issue that prevented SXM from showing up. It's fixed now. I got a great price and jumped on it.

We had our May SJU to SXM flight cancelled due to discontinuation of the route. I was wondering if you meant they were now available.

No. Jet Blue has discontinued SJU for the forseeable future.

Just checked Jet Blue for 4 travelers from JFK Saturday to Saturday in July. Just under $1000 per person round trip. Booked this a few weeks ago on Delta for about $575 per. I have a habit of checking back to see if I could have done better. Stunned by the JB price. That being said, Delta is now in $750 range.

They do have the Timeshare Travelers by the cookies, if you know what I mean.

It will come down especially for the off season. I just booked Dec 10 down and Dec 24 back for the lowest fare I've ever paid for that itinerary. I could have gotten it for even less if I wanted to take a later in the afternoon flight. I could have gotten the R/T FOR $395 but chose economy Plus and the earlier flight.

Their website is a little flaky. Earlier on my desktop computer, it was showing Oct 29th. Yet, on my phone (both browser and app), I could see Jan 3rd. Now, my desktop computer shows Jan 3rd, however, my ipad's browser is still showing Oct 29th, even when refreshing the page multiple times.

Nope, not a cache issue. I have deleted the cache and now on my desktop computer, I'm back to booking through 10/29. Had 1/3 earlier.

I've suggested this before.....I think the JB website was designed by the same folks who did the ACA website. Every time they make a change there are days of issues before they get the bugs worked out. Give it 3-4 days and they should have it straightened out. Or not...... <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/duh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/duh.gif" alt="" />

Wow, that's a tough one. I'm pulling at straws now but can you try a different browser?

Or perhaps the poster should just call them directly. When there are issues like this they generally book for you with no fees attached.

I've tried different browsers (Microsoft Edge and IE, chrome, and firefox). All give me booking through 10/29. This is a Jetblue website issue.

I'm not looking to book as I live in Florida, so since SJU-SXM is being discontinued, there is no reason for me to fly to SXM using Jetblue. I was just curious how much they were charging for the new Mint seats they are going to start flying to SXM from JFK.

Round trip from JFK will be around $5000 for two.

Dick,

We automatically book out of JFK for the non-stops, either AA or JB - JB only because AA usually cuts the n/s flights in April at some point, and through Thanksgiving as a rule until they bring them back in the schedule around very late November or early December. The fares are usually better than anything we can find through BDL for our time of year and we have the choice of the two named airlines plus Delta - all offering n/stops. JFK is about fifteen minutes farther away than BDL but to us it's worth it. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />
