SeatGuru is an awesome service, I remember when they first came out too, it was a godsend.
jim - oh yeah…SeatGuru is always worth a visit when you’re flying!
Instead of going to the mall after Christmas… Go to Hawaii!
Typically, there is “Travel Vacuum” right after Christmas. Everyone is going back to the mainland after spending Christmas in Hawaii but almost nobody is traveling in the other direction… To Hawaii.
Try departing from the mainland between Dec 28 & Jan 07
During this time period… The planes going to Hawaii are almost empty and you can usually get a good deal. (Distressed inventory)
Great idea, Dave! And stick around to see some of the phenomenal New Years Eve fireworks?
