It seems as if Hurricane Earl couldn’t have worse timing. As the hurricane roars up the east coast, the rain, high waters and cooling temperatures will most likely cause wrinkles in many travelers’ plans for Labor Day weekend.
It looks like the tourism tide has shifted in the Gulf of Mexico, and it might be the smart traveler who takes advantage of the deals. After the world’s worst oil spill and the largest environmental cleanup efforts in U.S. history, Gulf states are doing their best to re-claim their image of sunny vacation lands.

JetBlue provided two passes: one for seven days a week for $699, and one that excluded traveling on Fridays or Sundays for $499. The pass sounds fabulous, with 60 cities to choose from, all taxes included for domestic flights, and, yes, unlimited flights for a whole month (although you have last pick of seats).
