Not directly, anyway. But the direct links still work.

Airline Fare List

Fare Compare

Travelocity Also Has a Fare List Engine

*edit* -- found the answer to my question..

Not sure about that. True I found it to be $600+ RT, but when I added a hotel, the package of hotel (suite, king bed) & airfare was just $300.77 & that includes airport fees of about $50.

Travelzoo.com, once thought to be sort of a joke, has really taken off & seems to be very successful. They list travel deals from 300 companies but don't make deals themselves.

ravenmaniac said:It's much easier for most people in north Jersey to get to JFK on public transportation than to Newark Airport --except you, since you live nearby. International fares are cheaper from JFK than from Newark. Best of all, once you take the bus or train to Manhattan, it costs $1.50 to take the A train [subway] to Howard Beach in Brooklyn where you get a free shuttle bus to any terminal at JFK airport.

BUT driving is a nightmare, unless you don't value your car or your sanity. Go to Newark.

I really don't know where you're coming from with this.

Let's see here:

1) Newark is closer than JFK for people in Central, Southern, Western, Northern, and specifically Eastern (i.e. Newark) Jersey.

2) I don't know about you, but unless you're going for an overnight business trip, there's gonna be some sort of luggage to lug arround. I preferably would never lug around luggage transferring between busses, trains etc.

3) Even I lived in Hoboken or Northern Jersey by the GWB for example, I still would go to Newark because A) it's closer (mapquest it), B) Newark airport is also accessible by New Jersey transit from anywhere NJT travels, if you wanna do the mass transit thing. So all I have to do is hop on a train and take the monorail and I'm in Newark Airport.

4) As for cheaper fares, when I talk about cheaper fares I'm talking about $100 or more cheaper, not $20. Plus the fares are occassionally cheaper. Usually they're the same price.

5) The only reason I would take JFK is if the airline doesn't fly to/from Newark. Ever since EWR became international the idea of finding an airline that doesn't fly from JFK is becoming obsolete (don't get me wrong, there are still a good amount of airlines that don't fly from EWR, but that number is decreasing).

Thanks!

Thanks to all who posted- came across several sites I hadn't seen
