If that's the case, you don't want to miss out on our $158 roundtrip coast-to-coast super sale (travel through March 1) or our 50 percent off Caribbean sale (travel through June 15, including the peak winter season). With cold weather settling in across many parts of the country, 85-degree beaches and a tall tropical drink sipped under a warming sun sounds pretty good. If sunshine and beaches are not your cup of Long Island Tea, pick the spot that hits your fancy and fly between over 58 U.S. cities coast-to-coast for only $158-198 through March 28 (Florida travel is valid through March 14). As an added plus, check an offer that can make you an elite-level frequent flyer with just one trip. Most frequent flyers have to rack up a minimum of 25,000 airmiles to hit the first level of elite status, but we can tell you how to do it quick and easy. We're posting many other goodies on our News Desk by the hour. Add it to your bookmarks and visit regularly to be among the first to know what's up in low fares. COAST-TO-COAST FROM $158 THROUGH MARCH 1, 2001 Just in time for the holidays, we have coast-to-coast airfares as low as $158 roundtrip. Chances are, we have the route you need. Please be aware that travel to Florida will be almost impossible December 18-29 for those who have not already purchased. Even First Class is almost completely sold out. That leaves the rest of the country at your disposal on Bestfares.com bargain fares, or you can book Florida for a welcome post-holiday stay. We'll even waive that ferocious $40 fuel surcharge to add to your savings. For example, travel to and from the West Coast--Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, Salt Lake City, Seattle or Portland--to Baltimore, Hartford, Orlando, Fort Lauderdale, New Orleans, Houston and many more cities for just $158 roundtrip. From the West Coast to Dallas, Minneapolis or Milwaukee is just $190. From the West Coast to Boston, New York City, Philadelphia, Washington (DC) or Miami is only $238. Don't miss out on these holiday and winter fares. Go home for the holidays (or relax afterward) on these tempting fares. Visit http://www.bestfares.com/view.asp?id=3D10067898. LAST 4 DAYS: $198 RT BETWEEN 58 U.S. CITIES THROUGH MARCH 31 If we don't have the coast-to-coast sale fare you need in one category, we'll try another. This one requires fast action, with just four days left to book, but it gives you an extra month of travel (March 1-31) plus another bucket of fares to draw from. Business travelers face walk-up fare increases of as much as $370, added since the first of the year. Leisure travelers can use this sale to fly for slightly more than half of what business travelers are paying in fare hikes alone. If you live in Seattle, Portland (OR), Reno, Las Vegas, San Francisco, San Diego, Phoenix or Los Angeles, head east to Orlando, Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach (the home of the challenging chad), Baltimore, Detroit, New Orleans, Houston or Chicago. There are many additional choices. Availability for December travel is as tight as the smile on a Supreme Court Justice's face, but we should be able to get you what you need for the remaining months. Don't miss out on a sale that can save you hundreds of dollars. Visit http://www.bestfares.com/view.asp?id=3D10067898 and scroll to the applicabl= e headlines. RT TO 15 CARIBBEAN CITIES FROM $328 THROUGH JUNE 15, 2001 They said it couldn't be done, but that's the kind of challenge we rise to meet. The result--$328 roundtrip airfares from 40 U.S. cities to your choice of 15 cities in the Caribbean for the 2001 peak winter travel season. These fares can be 50 percent (or more) off standard published fares. Think warm fun and island breezes in Cancun, St. Maarten, Aruba, San Juan, St. Croix, St. Thomas, Montego Bay, Grand Cayman, Nassau and four other Bahamas Islands. Golfers, how about Bermuda's extraordinary courses? These fares are valid from over 40 U.S. cities starting at $328 roundtrip. Departure cities include New York City, Atlanta, Boston, Buffalo, Philadelphia and Washington (DC). Our most expensive ticket (still cheap) is from the West Coast, and it's only $458 roundtrip, including Denver, Phoenix, San Diego, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, San Francisco and Seattle.

This deal includes New York City, Boston, Myrtle Beach, many more southeast, southern and Texas cities and over 50 cities in the Midwest. You can save up to 65 percent and lock in sale fare travel through August 15, 2001. If you know where you'll be heading for summer vacation, book now and cross one big planning problem off your list.
