As the summer travel season comes to a close, travelers have a new way to save on fall getaways.
JetBlue recently announced the «Game On» fare sale, which offers flights as low as $49. The promotion is a nod to the fall football season, however the fares can provide an affordable options for early fall vacations, or last-minute trips.
As an example, JetBlue shows a fare of $49 one-way from New York's JFK airport to Nashville, Tenn. for travel in both September and October.
That particular route can often reach as high as $314 one-way, which makes the discounted fare a true bargain.
Another example of the discounted fares is from Boston, Mass. to Orlando, Florida, where one-way prices can be as much as $169, and the fare sale offers $69 one-way. In the Midwest, travelers can save from Cleveland to Fort Lauderdale for only $102, where other dates have flights for as much as $706, one-way.
JetBlue says the discounts must be booked by August 29, and are only valid on Tuesday and Wednesday travel between September 10 and October 30.
Travelers can find the lowest fares on their routes by using JetBlue's Best Fare Finder calendar.
After entering their desired destination, a calendar view will show all of the available flights and prices. Changing the departure day can help save travelers hundreds on the tickets.
Best of all, the fares displayed include all taxes and fees. The fares promoted are in the «Blue Basic» category of fares, which includes one free carry-on bag for flights departing after September 6, 2024.
The airline shares it is important to book directly in order to get the lowest prices, and other perks available.
“Customers who book directly through jetblue.com are guaranteed to find our lowest fares, and can enjoy additional benefits including access to all of JetBlue’s fare options, as well as fare sales and promotions, some of which may not be available through other third parties,” the airline shares on their booking site.

Clarksville, a historic district of Austin, Texas, has lately emerged as a stylish dining and shopping enclave. Among the area’s most compelling new businesses is La Embajada, a design shop housed in a 1923 Craftsman bungalow. Combining the hospitality and interiors expertise of its founder, Raul Cabra — who has designed tableware for some of Mexico City’s most celebrated restaurants, including Rosetta and Pujol — La Embajada presents a refined, regionally diverse selection of Mexico’s artisanal offerings. A series of small rooms display vintage and contemporary furniture, from stately midcentury armchairs and 1970s glass sconces to a minimalist agave fiber rug by the Oaxaca-based textile artist Trine Ellitsgaard. The house is also an actual residence. Cabra often stays in the bedroom up the creaky stairs, and he’s recently made it available for short-term stays (bookings include a daily basket of baked goods from Austin’s Swedish Hill). Guests can purchase the room’s handmade décor, such as a pair of sleek bedside lamps in milky white onyx, a 1960s La Malinche dresser and a bedspread from a Michoacan manufacturer that once supplied Herman Miller. Downstairs, glassware, candles and gifts fill a section modeled after a typical general store in a small Mexican town. But La Embajada’s heart is its inviting kitchen, where visiting chefs cook elaborate meals and staff prepare ice cream and coffee. In another twist, every bespoke detail — including a hammered copper sink, caramel-colored tiles and waxed pine cabinets — can be custom-ordered for one’s own home.
