What's "The Catch"?
Early reports indicated that JetAmerica's fares would run "as low as" $9 each way. While this is technically true, the airline will only offer nine seats per flight at that rate, plus a $5 "convenience fee" if ordered online, and an additional $10 "call center fee" if ordered by phone.Official Website: Jet AmericaAbout this page
