Houston, TX Fri. 14 Aug., 2009. Like many others, I have seen that JetBlue Airways (B6) is offering you to basically fly their system in 30 days for $599 plus some taxes if you head to international destinations.
Being the consummate traveler where it is all about the journey, this looks intriguing. Of course I have specific goals in mind and during that month I have to work so I have to accomplish this task on weekends only, i.e. Friday p.m. to Sunday p.m. This poses mega challenges, but I'm up for it. I also have to justify the cost vs. the goal value.
I've already looked at Jetblue's routes and picked the cities which I've not yet logged and those which I've already visited but would like to visit again time permitting. I have to keep focused as the primary goal is to log 13 new airports in 4 weekend days (12 days) and stay within the rules of the game.
Here are my 13 goal cities:
Aguadilla, PR | BQN |
Buffalo, NY | BUF |
Hyannis, MA | HYA |
Long Beach, CA | LGB |
Martha's Vineyard, MA | MVY |
Nantucket, MA | ACK |
Newburgh, NY | SWF |
Provincetown, MA | PVC |
Puerto Plata Dominica Republic | POP |
Richmond, VA | RIC |
Rochester, NY | ROC |
Rutland, VT | RUT |
Santiago Dominica Republic | STI |
Here are my 10 time permitting cities:
Aruba | AUA |
Hamilton, Bermuda | BDA |
Bogota, Colombia | BOG |
Bridgetown, Barbados | BGI |
Cancun, Mexico | CUN |
Nassau, Bahamas | NAS |
Montego Bay, Jamaica | MBJ |
San Jose, Costa Rica | SJO |
Santo Domingo, Dominica Republic | SDQ |
St. Maarten, Netherland Antilles | SXM |
And finally I'd love to re-visit these two cities, but service starts after the end of the promo :-(:
Castries, St. Lucia UVF |
I'm now armed with my PDF and downloadable schedules that were pointed out to me by @jetblue - http://www.twitter.com/jetblue at http://www.jetblue.com/help/timetables. Let the strategy begin.
