Last year when I paid for a first class seat from Portland, OR, to SXM, it was around $800. This year, the prices are around $2,2xx for one person. There was one day it was down to $1,4xx, but I wasn't positive I was going at that time. It was back up to $2,2xx the next day. One day last week it went down to $1,6xx, and I jumped on it. Back up to $2,2xx ever since. Ridiculous.
