Question
WE ARE GOING SEPT. 4TH - 11TH.  HOW SHOULD WE GO ABOUT FINDING THE CHEAPEST AIRFAIR?

Answer
Hi Tammy!!!  Travel to Aruba and finding tickets at a good fare with less then 6 months are hard to find. I can help you more if I knew where you are originating. However, the best thing I can offer to you at this time is go directly the to Airline websites, and compare fares. Sometimes, a special does pop up. I leave from Hartford, Ct., and I seen fares range from a low of $345.00 to $759.00 this season. That goes to show the difference depending on when/how you book. American (www.aa.com) is the prominent carrier to Aruba. Then Delta (www.delta.com). United and Continental also have service there, along with USAIRways. Please get back to me if you need anything else with this, as I do know flights start to get filled about a month before the date of departure. I transition in San Juan, and I know the flight leaving Aruba on my departure day has only 9 seats left, and thats for August 27. ( just to give you an idea). So please feel free to contact me again if you need more assistance!
