My Parents found an old ticket from when I flew alone to see my grandparents when I was 7 yrs old. Anyway, thought I would post the information. Kind of neat. I can remember that it was not a non-stop flight, but cant remember where we went. It was a one-way ticket. (no, they didn’t leave me there, they drove up to come and get me)
Eastern Airlines
Flight # 838Y
7/6/1978
7:25 AM
PBI-PHL - 1 stop in between
Seat 20 E
I actually thought it was a little high for a one-way ticket. Last year you could get a 59.00 PBI-JFK one way. Of course there are alot more fees and taxes now and that 59.00 would turn into 99.00.
I remember I paid $51.00 each way to go from DC to PHL. I think it might’ve been a couple of years before 1978. I’d have GLADLY paid $10.00 more each way for a longer flight!
