There is enough passenger traffic from NY-SF that you should be able to find an affordable flight. But start looking now, you will also have better luck if your travel plans can be flexible. |

Try kayak.com and mobissmo.com, which web scrape airline and travel agent web sites. Check all three of SFO (on the peninsula near Millbrae / San Bruno), OAK (in the east bay around Oakland / Alameda), and SJC (in the south bay near San Jose), though which one is more convenient depends on your actual destination. Some other airports like Sacramento may be worth a look if your actual destination is further away in that direction. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Timothy J.

JetBlue is usually the cheapest and always the most comfortable on that route. Non-stop flights, comfy seats, nice snacks, TV in each seat to keep your brain numb until you fall asleep. http://www.jetblue.com/ With any luck it will be about $250 round trip. miguel -- Hit The Road!

JetBlue is usually the cheapest and always the most If booked well in advance, it might well be. However, the OP is traveling on a summer weekend a month away, so other carriers might be cheaper and/or more convenient. I have seen prices higher on Jet Blue, Southwest, etc higher than ths legacy carriers, as sometimes people tend to grab the cheapest fares quickly on the "discount" carriers. |

It's possible, but I'd still make JetBlue the first place I checked. I just flew them round-trip coast-to-coast on a few days' notice and the fares were in the $130 each-way range. And in any case it's worth paying more to fly with them. miguel |

Yes, Jetblue rules.
Kill the legacy airlines. Jetblue is so comfortable. The legacies with their stupid hub changes and sensory deprivation belong on the ash heap of history. And their demanding unionized workers need to be shown the door to a lifetime of working as walmart greeters. |
