I just head a death in my family, I need to get to Utah asap. I've looked at hobbit, sun country and travelocity all of which are right around the same price...does anyone know a place that is going to be cheaper then $300 RT?

Also, I'm very scattered brained right now and I have a few transactions in process, so if anyone sees my name in the FS forums and people asking if they have been trolled by me, point them here, I should be home by the 15th...or try to be...just can't think of everything and everyone that I'm buying from at the current moment.

Thanks.

sorry for your loss. check w/the airlines about a bereavement fare, they're like 50% off.

What airports are you flying from/to? I use Orbitz, Southwest or Jet Blue.

From MSP to SLC

Been to Orbitz, hate that a lot of these flights are with the big name companies. I'm sorry but I just don't have an extra $1000 around to spend on a flight. On Hobbit now, thinking maybe taking one of their flights to Denver then maybe hoping on a play from Denver to Salt Lake.

I'm sorry to hear about the death, but the cheapest I see is $313.40. And I really don't know how reputable this site is. Text

Edit: hmm seems they're not very reputable. I just did a test vacation to a caribbean island, and it came out $200 cheaper than anyone else. well, i tell my friend about it (he lives down there), and he says that it would be impossible, as the airport's been closed for 20 years.
