yes. i like them, those friendly-name-a-price-websites.

i prefer hotwire, though. there's no bidding and forcing of taking a
ticket.

i've flown from fort wayne (a nowhere airport) to richmond, VA for $80.

i've flown from ft wayne to spokane - another set of nowhereish airports
with high rates (avg 400), for 160

with no painful red0eye, although i like red-eye, it's quieter.

too bad you cannot be small and stow away in my brother's sea bag. then
again, he's supposed to be home for christma,s and perhaps speaking to his
new brothers-in-law

delays and stopovers are invetibale. pick places like atlanta, and chicago
- they have fabulous people watching opportunites.  don't pick Cinci. i
was stuck for 14 hours on a routine flight from richmond to fort wayne.

good luck!
