Airfare
 

When is the cheapest time to travel from the east coast to Denver or Colorado Springs? Every time I try to get a cheap airfare it's 5 or 600 dollars. I'd be traveling from WPB, FL.

Don't know if this will help you, but American Airlines is starting direct service from Miami to Vail on December 16. They were offering great opening specials, but I won't guarantee anything.

5 or 600 dollars? You mean you can get a flight for FIVE DOLLARS? <BR> <BR>I would jump on that one, my friend. <BR> <BR>I don't think even Mr. William "PriceLine" Shatner can get that price! <BR> <BR>(Ha, ha, hahahahaha!) <BR> <BR>Oh, and I bet being in West Palm Beach, you just LOVE the number thang.

Denver is a tough city in which to get good airfares because United pretty much dictates fares. <BR> <BR>I just used the Frontier Airlines (www.flyfrontier.com) web site to try an Orlando-Denver routing and it returned a fare of $300 in mid-January. Perhaps you can even get it lower if you alter the times. Drive to Orlando...it'd be worth it to fly Frontier. (It's a good airline and generally is the cheapest to Denver!)

Natalie, <BR>Best bet is to do a "Fare Watcher". I have Boston to Denver on my fare watcher on Travelocity.com <BR>Last year, a $198.00 price showed up one morning and only lasted for an hour or so. I was able to book my four tickets at the $198.00 price.

If you would be willing to go to Steamboat, Midway is having some promotional fares and you can now fly from WPB to Raleigh-Durham to Steamboat Springs for about $350, which is as good as you can do, I'd imagine. I'm not a shill for Midway and suspect other airlines are probably cutting fares to Steamboat to meet Midway's challenge, so consider that, too.
