Going to Mecca

[chelelev]

It is time for me to begin looking for flights to Columbus, Ohio so I can go to the Bee (Longaberger convention).  Prices has jumped, I am not seeing any fare war going on as far as my flights are.  Going from the baby airport here is about 381.00.  I have drive to Seattle (and find a place to leave my car where I am not paying 25.00 a day to park) it is 255.00.  I can drive to Spokane and save about 30.00 (any savings would be offset by parking fees or the "free parking" at the Ramada if I spend the night the previous night, which I might have to since the flight leaves at 6:00).  All flights from Spokane go to Seattle first.  Usually Travelocity is good but they aren't coming up with much.  I have tried flying into different airports (I have to rent a car anyways so that is not a big deal) but the prices are not much better.  I have tried flying to Philly, Indy, Columbus.  I will try Pittsburgh next.  Flying from Seattle sucks since it is a 3.5 hour drive to the airport.  Spokane is 2 hours.  Portland is 3.0 hours.  Wonder what parking is there?  I like Portland's airport, it is beautiful.

If it would be on a weekday, that would work out great for me because I could get back to work by 7.
