9 dollar airline tickets on Jet America

May 28th, 2009

Jet America, a new low cost airline is offering plane tickets for 9 dollars each way for 9 seats on every flight. The locations they flight to are currently limited, so not everyone can take advantage of this deal. But if you live in the cities they currently serve, you’ll have to book in advance to get a seat within the 9 seats for 9 dollars.

Jet America uses NexGen Boeing 737-800 jets for the flights, if that makes any difference to anyone When I checked on Jet America airlines website, JetAmerica.com, a $9 one way flight will cost you $24.60 after taxes and fees (without any baggage). There is a $20 fee for each bag you have which is still cheaper than regular one way flights on other airlines.

If you use Jet America reservations phone line to book tickets, it will cost you an additional $10 fee per person, per reservation.

Happy Flying!

Then the phone rang. It was his wife calling to ask him whether he needed soup or medicine from the store for his cold.

He decided to make some tea for his wife and himself and then turned the TV on. The news anchors were talking about the weather and flooding in some parts of the city. He turned on the stove and placed some Jasmine tea in the water and went to watch the TV. He heard a loud thunder near his backyard that made him jump from his seat and then the power went out. He decide to sit on the recliner and rest until his wife came back home.
