Many U.S. Airlines are slashing prices on some flights, hoping to lure travelers this holiday season and into the New Year. JetBlue Airways' four-day online fare sale as low as $109 each-way from the Bay Area to New York you've got until Thursday to book it at http://www.jetblue.com/. For $30 more on the same route, fly Virgin America, which trumpeted its holiday fare sale today. And if you favor Southwest Airlines? Every Tuesday the airline announces a fare sale on the click-and-save page of its Web page. Today's site told of fares from $49 to $109 on select routes around the country. With sagging numbers Southwest and at all the other airline struggling in a down cycle, an effort is under way to entice a traveler who might otherwise not travel. The carriers hope to trigger impulse buying. The Virgin America sale requires travelers to buy tickets on its Web site, http://www.virginamerica.com/, by Dec. 11 and commence traveling on or after Jan. 6. All travel must be complete by March 1. The deals include $59 fares one-way between San Francisco and three destinations - Las Vegas, San Diego and Seattle.In addition to the $109 transcontinental fares at JetBlue, the carrier has one-way fares as low as $79 between Austin and Long Beach or $89 to San Francisco. The JetBlue tickets must be purchased by 11:59 p.m. Mountain Daylight Time Thursday and the travel must take place between Jan. 7 and Feb. 11.
