jmpnkramer 0 #9 September 8, 2003 dude face it. In order to travel you need to pay. Maybe you could re-arrange your dates of when you fly. That might change the price.

Amazon 7 #13 September 8, 2003 I got my Round trip tickies from Expedia.com....Alaska airlines out of Seattle.. Non stops... for $250. SW had some cheaper flights for $89 each way but they had stops or plane changes. Check out Orbitz or Expedia or the SW airlines site.... check the promotional fares. Try different dates and times. http://www.southwest.com/hotfares/phx_nonstop.html Amazon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

whocares 0 #17 September 8, 2003 300 bones to fly is not a bad price. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stacy 0 #18 September 8, 2003 yeah, 300 for airfare, especially around the holidays, isn't bad. not great, but probably about average. Just booked flights from south FL to baltimore for the holidays and they ran similarly in price, even after searching the discount sites... __ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AggieDave 6 #21 September 8, 2003 You got a thumb? Use it, you could hitch hike your way there...

BlueEyedMonster 0 #25 September 9, 2003 That's one of the reasons I hated Portland. The Port Authority makes it so expensive to fly out of there. (SW doesn't fly to Minneapolis) When I lived there It was always cheaper to take Amtrak to Seattle and fly out of SeaTac. Yeah it takes more time, but including cab fare, I usually saved myself about $100. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
