That sounds abnormally cheap.

My Opinion:

Discount Domestic Airline Direct Flight

is better than:

Connecting Domestic Flight on a Legacy Airline with an Upgraded Seat



Unless you're like me and live in Atlanta where you can pretty much fly direct most places (with higher fares of course )

If I just need to get somewhere, I don't have a problem using those airlines. Just don't depend on them to hit a schedule.

They used to have $20 flights to Orlando, etc, and it made it easy for us to have part of the family leave at one time and for the rest to catch up. It's a fast bus.

My limit is 3 hours. Do not book any budget flights over 3 hours, you’ll kill yourself. Pack with vacuum bags, you can easy put 2 weeks worth of clothes in a carry on duffle bag if its packed in vacuum bags. If you do any shopping while on your trip, just mail everything you bought home. If you fly spirit and the airport is in a culture city, i.e. Miami, NOLA, BWI, good luck.

It’s fine to just get from point A to point B. For a weeding I assume you will need luggage so keep that in mind.

Good tip for domestic travel as is being discussed here. I have done so (actually I mail my dirty clothes home to make space for purchases).

Not such a good tip with international travel though. Postage is usually slow and expensive.

You can usually upgrade on Frontier so you dont have to ride in the back with chickens and goats.
