Air, hotel and broadway show package
 
Looking for a reptable company to get a good rate for airfare, hotel and broadway ticket from Columbus, OH to New york for 1-2 days with a ticket to see the play A Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. Would like to plan to go in April.

I don't know if any such package, but you can put your own together.

For the best hotel deal, name your on price on Pricelin (check biddingfortravel.com for more info).

For the tickets, look for discount codes on Broadwaybox.com and purchase them in advance.

For air, compare prices n kayak.com for the best fare.

MFNYC is correct. Of course if you book a room, you can always check w/teh concierge re: tix as well although, broadwaybox.com is excellent. I was also going to suggest Skybus but not for that short a time.

Is there a reason you want this as a "package"? In all honesty it's been a few years since I've seen such domestic packages that save you money. You can usually do better booking your own hotel, your own airfare, and getting a discount Broadway ticket yourself.
But I'm ready for anyone to prove me wrong.

You might be able to get an air/hotel package that's cheaper than buying the 2 separately, but it won't necessarily include the most convenient non stop flights nor will it necessarily have the best value hotel (but it might). Some hotels will do a package including theater tickets, but they're rarely cheaper than what you can get by buying them separately on your own. So I guess I'm agreeing with previous posters who say by separately or at least buy the theater tix and then an air/hotel pkg.

I checked the travel part of American Express and you can buy an air/hotel package and then add theater tickets to it, but they don't include the show you want. Given that it's on discount on broadwaybox.com and the discounts are even good for a Sat. night (not usually the case) I'd say that's going to be your best option buying the theater tix yourself.
