Where to Get an Affordable Summer Tanby Michele Cheplic | More from this Blogger 05 Jun 2008 10:00 PM Sure, you could dig your plastic lounge chair out of the garage, dust it off, set it up in your backyard and let the sun take care of the rest, but wouldn't you prefer to get your tan on in a place where the sun, surf, and sand work in harmony to give you that enviable golden glow? If money is an issue you are in luck. The following beach deals let you bake without going broke. Take a look: CONTINENTAL Right now Continental is offering amazing summer deals on flights to exotic locales. You can shake and bake on the shores of Mexico and Acapulco from Houston for just $199 one-way. And you can save even more jetting off the beaches of Bermuda from New York City. One-way flights on that route are selling for just $169. Continental is also offering sale fares to Puerto Rico, Costa Rica, Belize, the Cayman Islands, and additional destinations in Mexico, but you must book soon to lock in the low prices. US AIRWAYS For a limited time US Airways is offering discounted rates on round-trip flights to Aruba from 11 major US cities starting at $270. You'll find the lowest fares out of New York (under $300), but fares out of Boston, Chicago, and other major cities are also available for just $308 round-trip. The most you'll pay to get your tan on in Aruba during the promotional period is a very reasonable $507 round-trip out of Dallas/Ft. Worth. JETBLUE Currently, the popular discount carrier is offering outstanding summer deals to Puerto Rico. Sample fares include: Boston-San Juan (from $139 one-way), Orlando-Aguadilla (from $119 one-way), and New York-San Juan (from $139 one-way). To lock in the savings you must purchase your ticket 7 days in advance and you must travel on Tuesday, Wednesday, and/or Saturday during select periods through July 30, 2008.
