fine print

Make sure to read the fine print on those fares. When I checked there was an extra $19 airport usage fee, and a $27 airline security fee. So the $20 ticket actually costed around $75. Still good, but misleading.

JetBlue Kicks Ass. Whenever I fly to NewYork I always take JetBlue. It's sad though. JetBlue flies from Salt Lake City. And it flies to Las Vegas. But not from Salt Lake City to Vegas. So It looks like I'll be flying Delta for $158 roundtrip. And that doesn't include all of those assinine fees.

i flew southwest last year, and the flight was oversold, so they offered me a $500 flight credit to take a bump. So, I took the bump, got on the flight that left 20 minutes later and actually ended up in Vegas earlier than the flight I was supposed to be on...Long story short...my tickets to/from Vegas this year are free :D

i guess it wont give the special fare for that far in the future. i could only get 39.00 out of it. but i will get better fares as we get closer to con. i'll keep posted.

Hmmm, I can't get to Las Vegas from Ontario (ONT)! Rats! Well Southwest will have some deals, but they are not taking reservations yet.

Wow, that's a kick ass site. I already bookmarked it. Thanks, I will keep my eye on it.

Thanks for the tip, Kelvin.

I'm trying to find the cheapest NONSTOP to Vegas. After last year, I'm not connecting again. LAS-Frisco and then Frisco-ATL?
Not again.

stopovers for short distances are just a waste of time...

On the way back, after our party flew one hour to reno, our flight was delayed and we had to wait 3 hours to take another 1 hour flight. Yeah, nonstop flight is what you want.
