Read the fine print. There is well over $100 in taxes not included in the price of a one-way ticket. The only thing that would save Jet Blue in the Dominican market is getting a better time to fly into Las Americas and keep advertising for Santiago. Dominicans WILL spread the word about the ALL LEATHER SEATS and COMFORTABLE AND NICE LOOKING planes. They will even trust it more if Jet Blue makes it clear that they are A REAL AMERICAN AIRLINE. Dominicans only trust the inventors of the airplanes (ie. Americans) when it comes to flying 30,000 feet up in the air for 3 hours!!
I wonder why Jet Blue did not try to go for Puerto Plata (lots of potential there) and Punta Cana (with largest tourist industry in the Caribbean and fastest growing still, this is just a gold mine in the making!!)
