good tip for those who have the luxury of 2 extra travel days. many do like that route, some of my friends included. but for some of us who only have a week or 10 days, time is money, and i only wanna travel 12 hours max.
but - check your fares - today American Air PHL to BZE is still $477 (usually around 700+). today PHL to CUN is $587 - over $100 more, both thru MIA. oddly, i know what you said is so- direct MIA - BZE, half the distance, is over $600. crazy, huh? go figure.
