    Plane tickets to Vegas.......what do you guys pay??

    Me and my bro went back in May and paid $1200 ($600 a piece) for flights and stayed at the Mirage.

    I've got 4 nights comped for the Mirage and just looking to book flight. Everywhere I looked has damn tickets at $500.

    Anyone seen any cheaper flights?

    If you are somewhere Southwest services be sure to check their website, they don't show up on sites like Kayak. But yeah this is really dependent on where you are....

    First class is best thing in the world, from dallas it's generally like 120 extra one way, well worth it on a 3 hour flight. Especially the new planes where each seat has it's own interactive tv with hundreds of movies and thousands of songs

    Ever flew International? nothing beats it. I flew business class 2 years ago (upgraded on miles) and I am kinda addicted...flat bed seats, fantastic meals, top of the shelf liquor and the undivided attention from the airhostesses!!

    I always get packages, never just flights unless it's with miles. You can probably find an airfare that includes a room for cheaper than just a flight. Give the room away to your buddies who have miles or live close. Or give it to jj.

    I go from Chicago, and short of Spirit, I can never seem to beat 400 anymore. Used to be easy to get around 200. Now seems impossible. Are you flying out of Midway instead of O'Hare?

    WTF? Drive from Dallas? That's nuts.

    Quit being so damn cheap. You can win that drive money back on a few hands of blackjack. Damn.

    Think the best I got was 500 with driving a couple hours to another airport.
