San Francisco – Boston (and vice versa). $187 (Basic Economy) / $277 (Regular Economy). Roundtrip, including all Taxes – The Flight Deal

Great deals on nonstop flights to/from Boston!

The $277 fare is a standard economy option, which includes a regular-sized carry-on and personal item, plus the ability to select your seat in advance.

jetBlue offers a lower fare of $187, but it’s a Basic Economy ticket. This option doesn’t allow for advance seat selection, as seats will be randomly assigned at check-in. Additionally, changes and cancellations are not permitted.
