American / US Airways – Under $240: Washington / Cleveland – Caribbean. Roundtrip, including all Taxes

American / US Airways has been putting the Caribbean on sale from Newark and Houston the last two months. Its now available from DC and Cleveland. Here’s where we found availability to:

  • Grand Cayman [GCM] – $219
  • Antigua [ANU] – $233
  • Montego Bay [MBJ]  – $239
  • Punta Cana [PUJ] – $237
  • St. Lucia [UVF] – $213

As with the sale from Newark and Houston, some require overnight layovers in the connection airport. Availability varies by destination. In general, 2015 availability is better than this year. We highly recommend you use the flexible month search on ITA to find availability.

Those are quick check prices, depending on routing or carrier, it could be a few dollars more or less. And yes, these are still available from Newark and Houston.

Update 8/12/2014 @ 6:25PM Eastern – also available from Cleveland for about the same price. Our affiliate, Fare Deal Alert also found availablity from Denver.
