    Default Flight help

    I need to fly from Memphis to Sioux falls SD on Oct 19th or 20th. I found ONE flight for $360(every other one is over $700 which I cant afford) It will require me to sleep in the airport in NYC though(which I actually wont do...theres no way I'll be able to sleep a wink so someone can come steal my purse or laptop) as my flight gets in at 10:30pm and my connecting flight doesnt leave until 6am. La SUCK. I'll do it if I have to...but are there any travel savvy SW-ers that have another option? Or at least some NYC Sw-ers that want to do something that night so I'm not trapped in the airport????

    Okay, you're going from Memphis to Sioux Falls through New York City? You'd think you'd be able to find a connecting flight at someplace a little more central, like Chicago.

    How long will you be in Sioux Falls and where are you going after that?

    You'd think! But I cant find any other flight for that price that's any better.

    I'll be in Sioux falls for @ 2 weeks(actually about an hour and half from there in the middle of nowhere!)then home

    No can do. Sioux falls is actually an hour and a half from where I'm actually going and the club is sending someone to pick me up. I think I'm just going to have to book this flight...but hopefully Lady Jade(and anyone else there thats available) and I can kick it in NYC the night I'm laid over!

    You're gonna have to leave Sioux Falls on a plane too. You can often get a round trip fare cheaper than a one way. See what kind of fare you can get on flying from Memphis to Sioux Falls, and then from Sioux Falls to home.

    I realize I'll have to fly home,but I'm going to have to wait to get a return ticket until I'm there and have made some money. Plus I'm not returning to Memphis so I cant book a roundtrip ticket

    I vote for kicking it in NYC....

    One other option is to find a travel agent who books hunting trips for people who are going to South Dakota/North Dakota/Minnesota......Travel agents buy blocks of seating on flights and will sell a trip at a discount if they have leftover places available.

    PM me, some of my pals are headed there.
