A couple of examples spring to mind... and the URLs should be adequate in hinting at what the constraints are :)

- https://itch.io/jam/cga-jam

- https://itch.io/jam/fantasy-console-game-jam-3

- https://itch.io/jam/2-buttons-jam-2018

- https://itch.io/jam/procjam

- https://itch.io/jam/1-bit-clicker-jam

- https://itch.io/jam/gbjam-7

- https://itch.io/jam/musicgamejam

If you can think of a constraint, there's a good chance a jam already exists for it. If not, hosting one is easy, and very fun / fulfilling. See https://itch.io/docs/creators/game-jams.

Advance notice of some other game jams coming up:

› GitHub Game Off (Nov 1) https://gameoff.github.com

› Global Game Jam (Jan 31) https://globalgamejam.org

https://itch.io/jams is a great resource for other fun, niche jams.

This information is a decade old, but my wife told me that Southwest were the only American airline to make a profit. That could have something to do with it...

EDIT: This recent news article states "Of the five biggest U.S. airline companies, analysts expected only Southwest to report a first-quarter profit":
