I'm planning a June 03 honeymoon to St Kitts. The airfare is over $900.00 per person from Philadelphia (I have checked numerous websites). That seems excessive!! Does anyone know of how to get a better rate?

I would wait a while, I am sure it will get cheaper, especially since it is off-season. I booked my USAir tickets to PR last May for a November trip and ended up rebooking once because the price dropped so much and I still could have gotten it cheaper. Are you booking your hotel through a travel agent? The "excursion" airfares you get through someplace like Liberty Travel usually are much cheaper.

I have seen reasonable prices for St. Kitts air+hotel at the American Airlines Vacations website.<BR><BR>If for some reason you need to book air separately it will probably be costly because so few airlines fly there.<BR>

I don't know what your dates are Steve, but most cheap specials end in March or May. <BR><BR>Found this example on travelocity. You would have to go to Atlantic City to get the price of $298.00 per person.<BR><BR>This flight takes you to San Juan. From there, you can take a hopper to SKB. Going direct to SKB is real outrageous compared to flying into SJU and then taking the hopper for approx. $116.00.<BR><BR>Flight: Spirit Airlines flight 259 on a McDonnell Douglas <BR>Depart Atlantic City, NJ (ACY)- Tue, Jun 03 7:15am <BR>Arrive: Ft Lauderdale/Hollywood Intl (FLL) - Tue, Jun 03 9:50am <BR><BR>Flight: Spirit Airlines flight 1765 on a McDonnell Douglas MD80 Jet <BR>Depart: Ft Lauderdale/Hollywood Intl (FLL)- Tue, Jun 03 10:50am <BR>Arrive: San Juan,Puerto Rico (SJU) - Tue, Jun 03 1:25pm <BR> <BR>Flight: Spirit Airlines flight 1754 on a McDonnell Douglas MD80 Jet <BR>Depart: San Juan,Puerto Rico (SJU)- Wed, Jun 11 3:55pm <BR>Arrive: Ft Lauderdale/Hollywood Intl FLL) - Wed, Jun 11 6:40pm <BR><BR>Flight: Spirit Airlines flight 1268 on a McDonnell Douglas MD80 Jet <BR>Depart: Ft Lauderdale/Hollywood Intl (FLL)- Wed, Jun 11 7:50pm <BR>Arrive: Atlantic City, NJ (ACY) - Wed, Jun 11 10:20pm <BR><BR>Don't know if this helps you at all, but if you would like to contact me privately, I would be happy to check out some more options for you.<BR><BR>Shawn

we went for a week in January, $440 pp RT....keep looking, it should be way lower than $900!

Pete,<BR><BR>How did you get such a cheap rate? Where did you fly from and who did you book your flight through?

Pete

we booked in August 2002, for Jan 4sat to Jan 11 Sat, booked it through Orbitz.com, USAIRWAYS non-stop service, I would look into those San Juan connections as well, maybe you can get a good deal-----I for the life of me can't understand why June would be twice as expensive as January!

Pete

for what it's worth, you should think about Costa Rica for your honeymoon, unbelievably beautiful country, wow....it's great
