I read someone’s comment on a CNN article about this that AA was price gouging….$800+ for these tickets. Any confirmation?
Ryan,
All I can tell you is if you fly to Port-au-Prince in the next few days, it will be expensive, but fares on many airlines are expensive unless you do advance purchase. I priced tickets from Miami to Haiti in early March and found airfare for about $500 roundtrip, and if you wait a couple of weeks after that, you can get tickets for under $340 roundtrip.
Hope this helps,
Rick
to American’s credit, the airport would have still been closed to commercial traffics if it were not for their diligence, effort, and yes MONEY. They paid for all present infrastructures that make the airport usable again ( new processing center and luggage claim at their old cargo warehouse, new shuttle buses etc.) It is just fair that the government would give them a little time to make up some of their investment before Spirit is allowed to come back and start flying people for $9.00.
