I'm finding that tickets are very expensive... I just use Kayak.com or Sidestep.com You can try purchasing your ticket on a Tuesday--they tend to be cheaper. I'm flying in from Hawaii, but will be breaking my trip up. From CA LAX, I found a ticket for $115 (total)--not bad at all.

kapture Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 (edited) 115 !! o.O I've been searching and searching and all I get is 350 + *forehead smack* I'm sorry! I was looking at one-way airfare. My plan was to get out there and then travel to the other schools I was planning on visiting. Sorry about that! If you break it up so that you buy one-way tickets, it comes out to 300, so you save a little bit. I'm not sure how much ticket prices are going to differ--it's always a gamble to wait to see if they go down. But the Tuesday rule seems pretty standard. Edited March 12, 2011 by kapture

I wasn't expecting tickets to be in the 300 range, but I'll search for Tuesday flights Hope to see you there!

I'm trying to figure out how I'm going to finance my first leg to LA, but I suppose it's worth it in the grand scheme of things.
kapture Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Also, if it helps, they do offer that $100. reimbursement.
foodlover28 Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 Sorry to post a non- program related question, but I was wondering if anyone's arriving Thurs night and would like to share a shuttle?
