San Diego to New York $228 roundtrip - Traveling Well For Less

American Airlines is offering great rates for travel this weekend such as San Diego to New York $228 roundtrip. Rates include all taxes and fee.

The holiday season is a great time to visit New York and check out the giant Christmas tree at Rockefeller Center.

The reverse routing is also $228 so any New Yorkers (or New Jerseyeans, if that’s a word) can skip the cold and head out to San Diego.

Other great rates for this weekend’s travel include:

Chicago (ORD) to John Wayne Orange County (SNA) – $238
Chicago (ORD) to San Jose (SJC) – $288
Boston (BOS) to Los Angeles (LAX) – $256
Fresno (FAT) to Tampa (TPA) – $288

And these rates qualify for double elite qualifying miles and points that I posted about here.

These rates would be perfect since I’m flying out to New York this weekend but I need to get there sooner than the cheapest flight would allow me to arrive. But with rates like these, a little weekend getaway is bound to be in someone’s cards. Will it be yours?
