With availability for late January and February travel, why wouldn’t you plan those Winter getaways now? Availability is limited — available at this price on Tuesdays and Fridays, but with over 5 months lead time, you can make this work! Curacao has some of the best snorkeling and diving in the Caribbean. In addition, there are limited seats.

Oh yeah, this is matching and then attacking JetBlue’s fares. JetBlue recently announced twice weekly nonstop service on Tuesday and Saturdays starting December 2nd.  There is some availability at $340 on JetBlue.

Update 8/18/2014 @ 2:40AM Eastern – the $262 prices are gone. The next best price is now $295 from LaGuardia (LGA)
